Group of variants of one or more generic articles that is purchased as a separate article and as such has an article number, a purchase price, and purchase price conditions. Unlike a display, the components must belong to the same merchandise category as the prepack itself. They can be grouped together by the retailer as well as by the manufacturer or vendor.

In the wholesale trade, prepacks are purchased and sold, whereas in the retail trade, only the components are sold. For this reason, stock is managed at prepack level at the distribution center, and at component level at the store.

Prepacks are common in the textile sector.

When creating a prepack, be sure to assign the correct article category to it.
