Item List vs. Inventory

When creating an estimate or invoice, line items are added from your Item List. Therefore, your Item List will include all of the products and services you offer, including services, products - inventory, and products - non inventory, along with relevant information such as quantity, value, and other attributes. In contrast, your Inventory is a catalog of only the line items you have designated as product - inventory along with relevant information such as quantity, value, location, and other attributes.
