Item list

I am having an issue with P & L. When I invoice a client I sometimes use 4200 as professional fees and it is connected to income as I am invoicing for part payment of a contact. At other times when I am supplying parts I have created an item number that I have attached to 5000 cost of goods sold. Should I have another item number for parts sold and connect it to income?

    Do you track inventory with these parts?

    No Kris. We order and sell parts from our suppliers to our customers very irregularary. We specialising in building waste water plants so most parts ordered are for construction of the above.

    Hi @Jenny Byrne

    No, but make sure ALL your invoice Items are linked to Income accounts ☺️

    That is where I have been going wrong for years. Will make sure I fix it up for this year and then tell accountant. I will crate another list item connected to income not COG. You have been very helpful

    @Jenny Byrne No need to create a new one, if you change the existing one, it will update all historical transactions automatically for you! 😊

    If the Item is also used on purchases/expenses (eg if you use the Items tab on Bills/Cheques/Credit Card Charges rather than the Expenses tab), you would link the PURCHASE side to COGS by ticking the checkbox:
