Creating Item Records
Items are the goods and services you sell to customers, and the parts and raw materials you purchase from vendors. They can also include line items on sales and purchase forms. For example, discounts and miscellaneous charges.
Depending on the product you use and the features you enable, some item types might not be available for you to use. If you have questions about the availability of certain item types, contact your account representative.
To create an item record:
-
Go to Lists > Accounting > Items > New.
