How to add Products and Services to Zoho Books?

Hi Everyone,

In today’s blog, I will show you how to add the items into the Zoho books.

What is an Item in accounting language?

In simple terms, an “item” in accounting is like a puzzle piece. Accountants keep track of a specific thing or transaction to understand how well a business is doing. For instance, when a company sells something, that sale becomes an item. Or, when they spend money on supplies, that’s another item. All these items add up to create financial statements, which show the overall picture of a company’s money situation. So, an item is just a way accountants organize and understand the money stuff in a business.
