Build Baskets
This page will let you Build Baskets by item#.
When you click on Build Baskets all the partial items with an item# matching the pattern A.B will be moved into the basket with item# A. You can optionally choose to create these baskets if the item doesn't exist.
You can also add items to baskets through the Contents tab of the Item Details page for a basket item. See Basket And Packages for more details.

| 1001.4 | Partial item# 1001.4 for Basket item# 1001 |

The Item# 1001.4 would not be added to a basket (item# 1001) as one was not set to be created and it does not match the existing basket item# 1000.

| Basket_Two.Partial_D | Partial item# 'Basket_One.Partial_D' for Basket item# 'Basket_Two' |
Using the Build Baskets action with the above example (and the settings seen in the screen capture above) would build Basket Item# Basket_One with contents of Item# Basket_One.Partial_A and Item# Basket_One.Partial_C. The Item# Basket_Two.Partial_D would not be added to a basket (item# Basket_Two) as one was not set to be created and it does not match the existing basket item# Basket_One.

The basket and partial items can also be a mixed alpha-numeric combination of characters provided the A, or "Basket" item is the prefix for the "partial", or B, item# being used.
