If you don't see some columns you wish to use, such as Item Number or Date, you may be using the wrong layout for the type of sales transaction you're creating. Click the Layout button near the bottom of the window to view the choices available, and select another layout if you wish.

MYOB AccountEdge offers the following layouts for sales transactions:

• Service - This layout can be used for services and goods that haven't been added to your Items List. It has columns for Description, Account Number (or Name, depending upon your selection in the Windows view of the Preferences window), Amount, Job and Tax.
• Item - This layout is used for items that you've added to your Items List. (These may be inventoried or non-inventoried items.) The Item layout includes columns for Shipped Item Quantity, Backordered Item Quantity, Description, Price, Line Item Discount Percentage, Total Price, Job and Tax.
• Professional - This layout is similar to the Service layout, but it allows you to specify a date for each line item. It includes columns for Date, Description, Account Number (or Name), Amount, Job and Tax.
• Time Billing - This layout is used in conjunction with AccountEdge's Time Billing command center, and provides a more comprehensive means for billing for professional activities and other time-based services. Depending upon the choices you've made in the Windows view of the Preferences window, you also may enter items using this layout. It includes columns for Date, Hours/Units, Activity, Notes, Rate, Amount, Job and Tax.
• Miscellaneous - This layout generally is used for quick transactions that involve no items and require no printed documentation. It includes columns for Description, Account Number, Account Name, Amount, Job and Tax.
