Donations

You can "sell" inventory for a zero price to represent a donation.

  1. Create a 'customer' to track the donations. If you donate to different organizations and you want to keep track of each one, you can create a customer for each organization. The customers name would represent the organization. For example, the customer name might be "Inventory Donations" or "Goodwill Donations" or "Salvation Army Donations." Make the customers last name Donations
  2. Sell the items to be donated to the donation customer for $0. You can use one big ticket for all the items, or create separate tickets for each batch of items.
  3. This will show the cost of sales on the dresses against the zero selling price, which would lower the shops overall profit.
  4. The receipt can be used as a printed record of what was donated.
  5. Additionally, you can create a create a query that would export all the transactions to these donation customers. Simply create a query on Sales (Tickets) to list all sales for customer where the last name is Donations. You can also filter the query by sale date range.
