Table descriptions

The Material table allows you to identify one or more materials or products that you buy or sell over your scale.

The Material table can also be used to identify a service that you provide. For example, if you have Customers that you simply charge for weighing their vehicles you could create a Material named WEIGH which identifies that service.

A column name shown in red indicates that a value is required for that column.
