8.3 CHART OF ACCOUNTS
SELECT GENERAL LEDGER THEN MAINTAIN CHART OF
ACCOUNTS
ADVANTAGE
Salon Software and
Spa Software
divides the Chart of Accounts into the five main account
categories. These categories are Assets, Liabilities, Equity, Income
and Expense accounts. You can also review all accounts by selecting the
all tab.
1. Asset Accounts - things of value owned by the business.
2. Liability Accounts - amounts owed to outsiders.
3. Owner's Equity Accounts - amounts owed by the business
to its owners (profit). If the business loses money the owners may
owe additional money to the business.
4. Revenue Accounts - Sources of income.
5. Expense Accounts - Payments necessary to run the business.
To add an account, select the plus icon on the tool
bar found on the top of the screen. A General Ledger account is a
combination of the account number and the department. You can use the
same account number for a different account if you have a different
department for each account. The power is in combination of the account
number and the department number therefore giving you the capability to
have your accounts departmentalized. For instance you can have an
account called Sales numbered 5000 with department 10 for Retail and
another sales account number 5000 but with department called 20. Review
the following examples to explain best.
Account
Name Department
5000 Sales
Retail 10 (Retail)
5000 Sales
Services 20 (Services)
6010 Cost of
Goods Sold –Retail 10 (Retail)
6010 Cost of
Goods Sold – Service 20 (Service)
This ability is great because it allows you the
capability to perform department and consolidated reporting for
financial reports.
When you use your general ledger chart accounts you
will see the account as follows
6010-10 for cost of goods sold-Retail and 6010-20
for cost of goods sold-service. Obviously this a very simple example
and you can expand this theme through out your general ledger chart of
accounts or keep it very simple and not use departments at all.
