Currently When I create sales invoice it will automatically will hit inventory sales account until and unless you change it to any sales account.
But I want to select any sales account while creating invoice currently account head is locked.
Thank you in advance.
You cannot change the account for an inventory item on a sales invoice. That must be changed in the definition of the inventory item.
Can you guys add this thing as it will be beneficial for many who want to separate sales.
Regards,
It is already there, if you want the sales of a Inventory Item to go to a particular income account then make that selection within the Inventory Item itself.
One thing I did not explain is that changing the account, as illustrated by @Brucanna, cannot be done on an invoice by invoice basis. The reason is that proper account posting is connected with calculation of cost of goods and profitability.
If you guys make restriction to use only sales account it will not affect profitability and cost of sales or services.
the inventory sales account is selected when making a sale. when making a purchase of the inventory, the account is not a sale account.
if you are not selling inventory and want to add some expense, you can select any other account while making the invoice.
There is no restrictions, you either use the default income account (Inventory - Sales) or you nominate a Custom income account - regardless of which you choose “profitability and cost of sales” are not affected
