If I can ignore that field without messing things up for the way I'm
using the service account then I finally understand.
Thanks Guys.

Hi,
I don't think it's a bug as much as I don't understand why there is a
Purchases field on the Service setup screen.
Because You can put services to Purchase invoices as well and then this
service cost ends up at chosen account. In the past I have used it for
services like transport. It's sometimes on the same invoice as parts,
but it doesn't go to inventory (it's just cost).
Anyway for Your case it doen't matter what You choose for sellable
Service as it doen't matter what I use as sales account for a
purchaseble service.
Hope, it helps.

I setup another database and chose Service.sql instead of General.sql
and the Income field is Consulting now. That makes it my bad.
Why is there a Purchases field on the Services setup screen?
Thanks and you guys are doing a good job.

Hi Bob,
ComputerBase is a retail store that also does on-site consulting.
Setting up the inventory was straight forward but setting up a service
wasn't. The Number and Description are fine but there are 2 drop downs
that I don't understand, Income which goes to Shipping and handling and
Expense which goes to Purchase. Neither of these apply to a service.
What do I do with them?
These dropdowns indicate on which accounts the income/expense for the
service will be posted. The accounts you can select for each depends on
which accounts have been marked for "Income" / "Expense" in the
"non-tracking items" line of the account configuration screen.
Did you start with an included chart of accounts? If so, this might
indicate there's a bug in the chart of accounts as far as the enabled
checkmarks go.
Hope that helps.
If not, please follow up to the mailing list and maybe I can send some
links to screenshots.
Regards,
