How to enter a sale of a product as a sales receipt?

Hi,

 

This is probably a dumb question, but I am new to QuickBooks. I want to add a new sales receipt from my eBay sales, where I sell rare books. 

 

When I click Sales Receipt, under Product/Service, there is only Service. When I click Add New, I am given the options of only "Non-stock" or "Service". This is neither - this is to record the sale of a book, how much I originally paid for it, eBay's fees etc. 

 

What am I missing to add a product sale to QuickBooks?

 

Thanks

Welcome to the Community space, rubber, @Kosenurm

 

I'm here to lend a hand on entering your sale in QuickBooks Online. 

 

Let's  turn on the stock tracking feature.. This will allow you to easily manage and track your stock items. 

 

Here's how:

  1. Go to Settings and select Account and settings.
  2. Choose the Sales tab.
  3. Select Edit ✎ in the Products and services section.
  4. Turn on Show Product/Service column on sales forms.
  5. Turn on both Track quantity and price/rate and Track inventory quantity on hand.
  6. Select Save and then Done.

 

To continue this process, take a look at this article: Add stock products in QuickBooks Online.

 

I also recommend reading these articles to help monitor the status of your stocks in the program:
