Departments are ways to categorized general ledger accounts in ADVANTAGE Point of Sale Software.  They are essential for the user that wants to be able run financial reports that are segmented for business needs.  A department for your business may be Services, Retail, or Aesthetics.  You do not need to setup departments if you do not want any for your accounting system.

To add departments just select the plus icon.  You must enter a department id and name to save a department.  A department must be a number that does not exceed 4 digits long.  We recommend two digit department numbers if you do not need a lot of departments.  You can always setup up departments later in your implementation.  Departments can also be setup after you have begun your accounting in the software as well. 

You cannot delete a department that is in use in your chart of accounts but you can edit the department name at any time.  You can change the name of the department with out losing any data.
