Products (sale)

Unit prices

Define different price groups for a product. You can store gross and net prices and have them calculated automatically from the other.

Revenue accounts and taxation

The revenue accounts area is relevant in connection with financial accounting. Here you can retain the revenue accounts defined as standard from the chart of accounts or define your own revenue accounts.

If you are working with individual revenue accounts, change the display to "No" and use the "Add" button to define different revenue accounts depending on the combination of tax facts, country or validity period. The tax rate type column draws its content from the information in the separate "Taxation" business object, where you can store country or period-specific tax rate types.

Extended product fields

Show extended product fields

If you use eCommerce, you can manage this in the eCommerce settings under Organization > Administration > Function connection > eCommerce settings: Activate extended product fields to show additional eCommerce-specific data fields.

Meaning of the extended product fields (for eCommerce)

Now select Organization > Products > Product management: Add or Duplicate again and scroll down the form to see the newly displayed fields.

  1. Item type: Here you can create shipping costs in addition to the products. This means that the shipping costs are not listed on delivery bills or orders for logisticians.

  2. The EAN (European Article Number) is a globally standardized product identifier.

  3. List price versus real purchase price. These two fields allow you to differentiate between a purchase price communicated to the customer, the list price, and a real purchase price actually paid by you.

  4. Use the Change link to link a logistics provider to the product. When creating goods lists for your repeat orders, lists can then be created for the individual logistics providers or delivery bills can be issued.
    Note: A logistics provider can only be assigned if it has previously been created as a company contact in contact management.

  5. Here you use the Add button to specify the eCommerce account via which the product is offered.

Product usage

The Show usage link takes you to the following form.

  1. Here you can see in which document types the product in question has been used.

  2. You can limit the display in terms of time.

  3. You can display the product usage by individual customer or by product group.
