Enter a new sale

There are two main methods of entering sales. You can link the sale to a customer account or to your bank account. Using customer accounts requires you to enter two transactions, one for the sale and one for the customer's payment to your bank account. You may need to use customer accounts if either:

  • You need to send your customer an invoice.
  • Your customer will pay you at a later date.

To enter a new sale using a customer account, refer to How to...(Customers).

To enter a single transaction for the sale:

  1. In the Stock screen, tap the product you are selling.

  2. Tap Add a new transaction.

  3. Set Account 1 to an appropriate bank account and complete the other details. Product 1 is already set to the selected product and the Transaction Type is already set as a sale.

Enter a new purchase

There are two main methods of entering purchases. You can link the purchase to a supplier account or to your bank account. Using supplier accounts requires you to enter two transactions, one for the purchase invoice and one for the payment to your supplier. You may need to use supplier accounts if you receive an invoice from your supplier that you pay at a later date.

To enter a new purchase using a supplier account, refer to How to...(Suppliers).

To enter a single transaction for the purchase:

  1. In the Stock screen, tap the product you want to enter a purchase for.

  2. Tap Add a new transaction.

  3. Set Account 1 to an appropriate bank account or supplier account and complete the other details. Product 1 is already set to the selected product. Change Transaction Type to Out (Paid)* for purchases from the bank account or **Purchase for purchases using a supplier account.

Note: If you spend your own personal money on behalf of the business, a Petty Cash account named Personal Expenses can be used to keep track of money owed to you by your business. Select this account in Account 1.
