Build kits

AccountEdge automates the build process, making it easy to combine multiple items and build them into a finished item with Auto-build.

Auto build

Enhanced search of the items list

AccountEdge comes with an enhanced search that lets you search by a number of fields. For example, choose to search by Item Name and only items that contain the keyword you use will show up, saving you the pain of the old search and scroll technique.
