Describe what you'd like to see

In a manufacturing context, a master assembly refers to the final, complete product composed of various sub-assemblies and parts. Sub-assemblies are intermediate components, each a smaller, self-contained unit, which when combined form the master assembly. An inventory database tracks all these elements, detailing the availability, location, and specifications of both sub-assemblies and individual parts, ensuring efficient management and assembly processes.

Is your feature request related to a problem?

I think that this would make the product more usable by certain industry demographics, particularly in small business use cases where assemblies may not be hyper complex.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Many small businesses use Quickbooks Enterprise/ premier to get the assembly features which is not readily available in Quickbooks Pro. This might be advantageous to have some basic capability of these features for less sophisticated implemetations.
