This function is activated from the ''Products'' or the ''Service'' module settings page.

Therefore, their stock was immediately decremented whether or not the container product left the store, as it was to be considered that the sub-components could no longer be reverse engineered as single products in stock. | Again, the ''manufacturing'' module acted differently : from the moment it registered a "container product", it immediately purveyed that its by-products were unusable for any other purpose.
