Product range
  1. First column "Status" is not filled in by the user, it is calculated by the program and shows whether the product is in stock.

  2. Next column "Barcode" , which is completely optional. ' Universal Accounting System ' is very flexible, so it allows you to work in different modes: if you want, sell by barcode, if you want - without it.

    If you decide to sell by barcode, you will also have a choice: you can enter the factory barcode of the product you are selling here, or the program will assign a free barcode itself. This will be required if there is no factory barcode or if you manufacture this product yourself. That is why in the picture the goods have barcodes of different lengths.
