Company setup → Administration → Brands → Items → Parties → Money
Before you begin
- Agree on one starting point for stock, party balances and bank balances.
Step by step
Create your company and verify your email. Confirm that you opened the correct company.
Complete the company profile and invoice defaults in Administration → Company.
Create brands and items. Enter the stock physically on hand at your chosen starting point, with its opening purchase price.
Add parties and their opening balances. Add bank accounts with the balances you are starting with.
Check Stock Summary, party balances and cash/bank records before entering new business.
Create a backup in Local mode. Record new purchases, sales and payments from your starting point onward.
What to check
- Your stock and opening balances agree with your starting records.
- A new sale changes stock; its separately recorded receipt changes cash or bank.
Things to know
- Do not also re-enter old invoices already represented by opening stock and balances.
- Opening values are not freely editable later. Resolve a mismatch before starting daily entries.
