8.2 DEPARTMENTS
Departments are ways to categorized general ledger
accounts when using ADVANTAGE
Salon Software and
Spa 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.
SELECT GENERAL LEDGER THEN MAINTAIN DEPARTMENTS
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 and therefore you
can have up to 9999 departments. 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.
