Description Item

Description line items let you add a sentence- or paragraph-long description on items you are not selling. For example, you may want to enter special shipping instructions or a disclaimer.

Description items have no amount field. They are only used to add text to transactions. They can be used on both purchase and sales transactions.

The item name of a description item does not appear on printed forms, only the descriptive text. Nothing appears in the amount column for description items.

As you create a transaction, select a description item from the items list.
