If you process documents (Invoices, Credit Notes and Quotes) for your customers or debtors, in the Input - Documents menu option, TurboCASH uses the Stock Item file for the transactions on these Documents. Since not all of your Items are sold on credit, you need to create a Cash Customer Account.

If you set up Point-of-Sales system, you need to select default Cash Sales Account, which will be used to Invoice those customers who buys goods and pays cash or by cheque or by credit card.

To create a Cash Sales Account:

Click on the Edit - Accounts - Debtors menu option or press the and and and keys on your keyboard. The Debtor Accounts and the Debtors search facility screens will be displayed.

Press the key or click on the Close button to close or exit the Debtors search facility screen. Enter a six-digit Account Number, (e.g. 0CASH) in the Account Number must be prefixed numerically, followed by 5 alpha or numeric characters. As with debtors, the numeric prefix can be used to group debtors according to your requirements. For example, use the prefix 0 to differentiate the debtors from the creditors, followed by the first 5 letters of the debtors’ name or other number to suit your requirements. The following Confirmation screen will be displayed:
