ManagePLUS lets you enter physical quantities in the Memo field of your transactions. For QuickBooks users this is particularly useful for income transactions, because it lets you record quantities directly in the Deposits window without taking the extra step of preparing an Invoice or Cash Sales Receipt.

If you choose to enter quantities in the Memo field, here's a tip that can help you remember what quantity unit is appropriate for every transaction:  Add the unit name to the end of the Account name.

Here are some examples:

• Sales:Grain (bu.)
• Sales:Grain (cwt.)
• Sales:Hay (tons)

If you ever forget what unit is appropriate to use when entering quantities for a particular Account, all you need to do is look at the name!
