How do I charge for a service

If you want to see the service item broken out on Sales and Inventory by Category reports, create an new inventory category for the service, using a descriptive name i.e.. SHOE DYE, FREIGHT, ALTERATIONS, PRESSING, CANCELLATION FEE ...etc. ProfitSystem will automatically create a new accounting class and line item on the revenue report.

Go to the new accounting class and set the taxable status appropriately. If you need to change the selling price at sale time, check the Allow price changes checkbox.

Create a style code in inventory for the service, again using a descriptive term for the style code ie. ALTERATIONS, PRESSING. Use the new inventory category and accounting class. If there is a standard price for the item, enter it as the Retail 1 price.

Remember to check the Service/Not inventoried? checkbox so ProfitSystem will not attempt to count it during physical inventories, ProfitSystem will auto apply a TAKEN transaction status when it is sold on a ticket and not attempt to adjust Qty on Hand when sold.

Create a single size of NA for the item.

Now, you can simply sell the new style code to sell the service.
