You can analyse your income and expenses by setting up categories to suit your business.
Go to: Books / Income and Expense / Add sub-category. This might for instance be; ‘CD's, DVD's, Books' or ‘Sweets, Newspapers, Drinks'.
You can then view reports by income and expense categories.
Go to: Books / Receive Cash into an Account. Describe the receipt as e.g. ‘Mondays Takings' and then summarise the category of sales, e.g. ‘CD's, DVD's, Books'. The receipts will then appear in your cashbook.
Go to: Books / Price List / New Item, to set up items you sell.
Put in your cost and selling items and include a minimum reorder level. If you invoice customers, tick the ‘Automatic Adjust' box so that stock level is adjusted as you create invoices. Alternatively you can adjust stock daily through the manual ‘Stock Take' option.
Use the diary to set up appointments or tasks such as Special Orders, which you can link to specific customers to contact them when the order is in.
Set up employees in contacts so that they can have their own colour coded diary entry. This can be used to schedule appointments, for example; Hairdressing appointments or Dress fittings.
In any Contact detail page you can create Contact Notes, Reminders for follow up, Tasks, Invoices, Quotes etc... e.g. Set up a reminder to ring customers in future for anniversaries or next service due.
You can set up customer mail shots for marketing and information, e.g. ‘Valentines Day Soon' or ‘Closed for holidays soon'.
