In the Setup Options Page, there are a few toggles that you can turn on to help with Package Creation and selling. In the screenshot below you will see 3 highlighted toggles under the Inventory Filter.
1. Require Package Part Check - When this is enabled the user is required to confirm whether or not they would like to replace or use the items that are built into the package.
