1.7. Product Codes (DR)

 
As the Stock Control Module plays a vital role in both the Accounts Receivable and the Accounts Payable processes of a business, the Stock Control Maintenance Tab provides easy access to your Product Codes (within the Debtors Control Module), as well as the Purchase Codes (within the Creditors Control Module)
 
Whether your Stock Control Module integrates with the Debtors and Creditors Control Modules or not, having the ability to assign a unique Product Analysis Code and Purchase Analysis Code to a specific Stock Item presents additional ways to better analyse and use the valuable business and accounting data provided
 
Product Codes deal with the Accounts Receivable side of inventory control, providing you with data to help you fine-tune your sales and marketing activities, allocate resources more efficiently, and identify sales trends and inventory turnover rates
 
 

Using your Product Codes:

 
 
 
Unallocated Products Code
 
The Win Acc Debtors Control Module comes standard with an "Unallocated Products" code, which will be used if no additional Product Codes are inserted
 
 
Inserting/Updating Product Codes
 
When inserting a new Product Code, you will be required to enter the Unique Product Code, as well as the General Ledger Account Code
 
Enter a unique Description for each new product to easily keep track of every product dealt with by your business
 
Double Click a Product Code, or highlight the record and click "Change" to modify or update an existing code
 
 
 
Using Your Product Codes
 
Whenever a debtors document line item is added, you'll have the option of assigning the relevant Product Code
