QuickBooks Point of Sale v19: Group Items Overview

Group items in QuickBooks contain a list of component parts, similar to a bill of materials. The component list can include inventory assembly items, inventory parts, non-inventory parts, service, other charge items, subtotal, discount, and sales tax items. However, there is a limit of 20 component items in a group item.

Group items do not have a quantity of their own, so there is no impact on the group item itself.

When you add a group item to an invoice in QuickBooks, it will display each of the component items on the screen. You can choose to show all components of the printed version of the form, or just the group item itself.

You can modify the composition of the group item when you sell it. You can add or delete component lines, change quantities, and more. However, this does not affect the list of components, as they appear in the edit item window.

There is no specific transaction for a group item, and it cannot be "built". The group item does not have a quantity on hand.
