We handle the 10x10 frame and various colored covers separately in Acumatica. When a customer orders a tent, frame and cover is bundled manually and shipped together.
(a) I have included all covers in the template item using color as a variable attribute. How can I add the frame to the matrix item?
(b) If I want to use the 10x10 frame in a second template item, can this stock item be utilized across different template items?
Thank you!

@mindweb , the best way of setting this up would be:
Create 1x stock item for 10x10 FRAME
Create many products for FRAME COVER (for example, COVER RED, COVER BLACK, etc.)
Create a Tent matrix item (SKU = TENT)
Create variants of the Tent matrix item with the color as an attribute - this will create stock items in Acumatica (TENT-RED, TENT-BLK, etc.)
Make each of those stock items a Kit product. When you do that, you can set up a kit specification (separate screen). For your kits, you will use TENT and COVER RED, or TENT and COVER BLACK, etc. stock items as components of the kit.
After selling TENT-RED, you would assemble a kit in Acumatica, and then ship it.
