4. COGS perspective, system discount all components to the extent that Total will add up to a KIT item, you can see discount percentage under sale registry detail section as below
5. Leave Unit Price as Zero. The system uses a total of components price.

6. However, if you use method one after you record, the sale order system will hide your special pricing as below, note Disc% and Price$ columns.

KIT Backorder options
There is an additional option for Pick and Backorder kits whereby when kit items pick or back order as complete KIT.
In another word, If at least one KIT component doesn't have enough stock (NSA) then System Pick up to maximum complete kits and split rest as a KIT as below.
As well as, BackOrder is a complete set even though some items in the KIT may have stock in the system.
To turn on this function Go to Tools > Preferences> Inventory tab and tick the checkbox shown below.
Now you pick the order system will give you this warning.
Once you click OK, the systems pick KIT as below. Even though you have enough stock RTP for some item, system only pick up to full KIT.
Now system splits KIT as below in your sale order.
Now you can backorder as full KIT.
If the system can't pick any complete KIT, DO NOT split the KIT instead pick all RTP in order to hold all available components as below
