SubProduct Lookup
	Lookup Subproducts on orders and in inventory using options pulldowns.

Instructions
You can use the Subproduct feature in Mailware to set up items that are essentially identical except for their size, color and other descriptors (e.g., brand, flavor, pattern,  etc.). In inventory or when you take an order for a Subproduct (product with options) you can use the Lookup feature to make locating the item easy and intuitive.

Note: For help on creating Subproducts see the topics: Subproducts and the Subproduct Utility.
