Recording cash sales

Hi, I have just had a discussion with my accountant and need to set up something on Quickfile to record my sales. I am not sure how to do this. I need to explain how I work. I am a sole trader with multiple income streams. One of the streams is selling household goods. I do not invoice for this as payments are made on delivery; I just give receipts to customers. Cash from sales goes in my cash tin and then I bank it when an amount has accumulated. I also receive BACS payments from customers.

Please could you tell me how to enter this so there is a record of this income?

Many thanks.

I understand Peter and thank you. Can be a bit overwhelming knowing what to look for when you are a newbie to accounting like myself! I only use the basic features of Quickfile as that is all I understand and my accountant does the rest. Tried to look in the forum but found it a bit confusing.

Don’t get discouraged, explore the program, familiarize yourself with different user areas and functions. That coupled with the knowledge trove that is our forum will make using QF simple going forward.
