Cash Sales in AccountingSuite combine the functionality of Sales Invoices and Cash Receipts in one step.
Cash Sales can be used for a point-of-sale system or anywhere the product and the cash change hands at the same time. This type of transaction bypasses the Accounts Receivable and records directly to the bank or cash account.
