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 purchase 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 purchase transactions:

• Service - This layout can be used for services and for goods that don't appear in your Items List, such as office supplies. 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.
• 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.
