Sales Codes

You can view existing Sales Codes by going to Settings > Sales Codes or Invoices > Sales Codes.

Sales codes can be thought of categories of goods and services. A sales code will appear on your reports such as trial balance and profit & loss. Sales codes can contain products. An example would be;

  • Sales Code = “White Shirts”
  •  + Product = “Size Small”
  •  + Product = “Size Medium”
  •  + Product = “Size Large”

Sales codes can help you organise your reports, effectively track how much money a certain type of good/service is making and is used in our stock control features.
