List (view only)
The Suggested Sales List can be used to recommend other items to
be sold when the primary item is rented or sold on a Contract,
Reservation, Quotation, or Miscellaneous Invoice.
For example, if a sander was rented, a Suggested Sales List
containing several sizes of sandpaper would appear on the document
in the Select Suggested Sales List
window.
The SSL records can be maintained in the Suggested Sales List
window in the "Inventory" parameters on the Operations tab
of the Configure System Settings.
An operator must be assigned a Security
Role that allows permission to the Operations - Suggested
Sales List in order to access this table.

Rental Inventory.
Suggested Sales Lists can also be copied from the Group to products in that Group using Clone Group Information to Products.

Uncheck this box if the item is optional.
e.g. Popcorn cups may be sold when a popcorn maker is
