Cloud accounting and Inventory - Misc Items

We need to make a non-inventory misc item, how would we do that?

1. Navigate to the Items Lists.

2. Create a new item. 


3. When creating an item use "Service" type.


4. In the Setup tab be sure and choose the correct category/account you want this item to default to for each transaction.
Service Type items will not show in inventory with quantity on hand or affect your inventory balance.
