We sell hardware mainly. The easiest solution was to just create a dummy number of software licenses as an inventory item, and let them naturally decrement.

Do you only sell software or do you sell other items also (with purchases)?

If you only sell software, think about using Projects.

Your sales are then processed via AR Transactions (with no link to stock) and you allocate to the project.

Any purchases (including staff costs, overheads etc) can then be processed via AP Transactions and also be allocated to the project(s) (A cost can be allocated to one or more projects in the same transaction).

Thereafter, you can take out Profit & Loss statements in the normal way, or for individual projects.

Hope this helps

    We create software, and I feel weird adding it via a zero dollar
    purchase order like an inventory part. We basically have an
    unlimited supply and I wasn't sure if there was a way to sell it
    without first having it in inventory.

    I want it to behave like a taxable service, except its not a service.

    thx
