# The product list

## Products and invoice items

Here you can add the types of products that you normally send invoices for. Specify

- A number (which does not have to be numerical)
- A name or description
- A default price. This can be changed later on the invoice, without affecting the product or other invoices.
- A VAT rate.

If you are using automatic bookkeeping you will also need to specify a sales account. The sales account automatically links the product to a VAT rate, indicated in the table.

## The default product

If you create invoices but don't want to be tied to a certain product structure (but still use the automatic bookkeeping), you need to tell Economacs how the invoices should be filed. Do this by creating a default product, which will be used as a template for invoice items which aren't connected to a product. Choose the default product from the popup menu at the bottom.

## Stock / inventory

Economacs does not contain an inventory or stockkeeping module. There is no way to track inventory from within Economacs.
