Products and services in Sage Accounting are records to describe things you buy and sell. Instead of typing in a new description every time you create a new transaction, you can choose which existing products or services to add.
TIP:Depending on your subscription, you may also be able to record stock for your products to help you manage how much of each item you have, block transactions when you are out of stock, and automatically create new orders when stock levels get low.
By using this feature:
You can record your sales more accurately
They allow you to create detailed invoices quickly and easily
They will help provide better insight into your business
