Introduction to Product Family

The Product Family feature in OpenBoxes offers a way to link all related items together. This feature expands on Product Substitution by grouping all sizes of a product together. For example, all Nasogastric Feeding Tubes could be grouped in the same Product Family together.

The Product Family functions as a parent to a group of products. It is a many-to-one relationship and can be added during Product Creation or Editing.
