00:41 To practise this tutorial, you should have:
00:44 Knowledge of Higher Secondary Commerce or

00:49 Before we start let us understand What is Sales?
00:53 Sales is an activity related to selling
00:57 or the amount of goods or services sold in a given time period.
01:02 Let us see the need for Sales in books of accounts.
01:06 Every business sells products or services;
01:10 so it has to record them in their book of accounts.
01:14 Selling an item, does not always happen when cash is received.
01:19 Payment is received in the future for a sale made on an account.
01:24 Now, let us open the Frontaccounting interface.
01:29 Click on the browser, type localhost/account and press Enter.
01:37 The login page appears.
01:39 Here, type the username as admin and the password.
01:45 Click on the Login button.
01:48 Frontaccounting window opens.
01:51 Click on the Sales tab.
01:53 There are various panels here.
01:56 The Transactions panel is used for making transactions related to Sales.
02:02 To make a transaction we have to use the options:
02:05 Sales Quotation Entry and
02:08 Sales Order Entry.
02:10 Inquiries and Reports panel is used for making reports and inquiries of the transactions.
02:17 For this, we have to use the following options:
02:20 Sales Quotation Inquiry and
02:23 Sales Order Inquiry
02:25 Maintenance panel is used for setup of Sales and Customer details.
02:30 To do the setup, we have to use the following options:
02:34 Sales Types

Sales Persons Sales Areas Add and Manage Customers and Customer Branches

02:44 Let us now see the flow for a Sales Entry.
02:48 This comprises of 3 steps.

Setup Sales Setup Customers Sales Entry

02:56 In Setup Sales, we need to set the following options under the Maintenance panel:
03:02 Sales Types

Sales Persons Sales Areas

03:08 So, let us learn how to do so..
03:11 Switch back to the Frontaccounting interface.
03:15 The Sales Types option allows us to define the pricing level for the specific customers.
03:21 Let us go to this option.
03:23 Here we need to fill in the details, as prompted.
03:26 Let’s begin.
03:28 We need to add a Sales Type first.
03:31 So, I will type “wholesale” as the name for the new Sales Type.
03:36 In the Calculation factor field, type the Calculation factor to adjust base pricing of our choice.
03:44 I will keep it, as it is.
03:47 Next, if tax has to be added, we can check the box named Tax included.
03:54 I will keep the box unchecked, as I don’t wish to include the tax for the Sales Type.
04:00 Then click on the Add new button.
04:03 We can see the confirmation message, which indicates that the details have been saved.
04:09 Click on the Back option to return back to the Frontaccounting interface.
04:14 Now, let us learn how to add a new Sales Person.
04:18 Go to the Sales Persons option.
04:21 Here, we are prompted to fill in all the necessary information pertaining to the Sales Persons.
04:29 I have filled these details here for-
04:31 Salesperson name

Telephone number Fax numberand E-mail Id

04:37 Pls fill the details likewise.
04:41 The Provision field is used by a Sales Person who gets a commission or provision on what they sell.
04:48 So, I will type 5% as the commission in the Provision field.
04:53 Next is Break point.
04:56 It is used for a Sales Person who gets the provision only if the amount exceeds the break point.
05:03 So, in the Break point field, I will type 5000.00.
05:08 This means,
05:09 whenever the Sales Person sells above the break point, which is 5000, he will get a commision of 5%.
05:18 Provision 2 field is used if the Sales Person sells below the break point.
05:23 I will type 3.
05:26 which means if the Sales Person sells below 5000, he will get a commision of 3%.
05:34 Save these changes, click on Add new button.
05:38 We can see the confirmation message, for the saved entry at the top.
05:44 Scroll down, click on the Back option, to return back to the Frontaccounting interface.
05:51 Now, we will learn how to create a new Sales Area.
05:56 Based on the Sales Area, we will be able to create Sales Orders and make Dispatches.
06:03 Click on the Sales Areas option.
06:06 Type the new Area Name which we want to create.
06:09 I will type Retailer.
06:12 Now, save these changes by clicking Add new button.

06:50 We need to add customers to sell our products.

06:57 Switch back to the Frontaccounting interface.
07:01 At the left bottom of the Maintenance panel, click on Add and Manage Customers.
07:08 Click on the dropdown box.
07:10 The listed option may vary depending on the Frontaccounting version.
07:15 You may see the default customers of the company in your list.
07:20 In my list, there are customers -Abhi , Balaji and Hari.
07:27 I have created these customers before recording this tutorial.
07:32 Since a Company has to deal with many Customers, let us add a New Customer.
07:38 Fill in all the necessary details of the Customer.
07:42 I have filled these details here for my customer, as you can see.
07:47 Pls fill the details likewise.
07:50 In the Customer’s Currency drop down box, I will select Rupee.

08:14 I have filled these contact details for my customer.

08:36 I will keep the default settings, as it is.
08:40 Scroll down,
08:42 Then click on Add New Customer button to save these changes.
08:48 The confirmation message shows we have saved the details for our new Customer.

09:10 The success message indicates that we have updated the customer.
09:15 Again, scroll down to click on the Back option, to return back to the Frontaccounting interface.

10:25 So, let us make a Sales Quotation Entry

10:35 Recall, that we have created the Item code as 45 for Cement in an earlier tutorial.
