Questions building material suppliers ask

Can I buy by the tonne and sell by the bag or piece?

Yes. Each item has a main unit and a second unit with a conversion, so you can buy in one and sell in the other with stock kept correctly.

Can I prepare the e-Way Bill from a delivery challan?

Yes. EaseDesk prepares the e-Way Bill upload file from the challan or the invoice, with the vehicle or transport document. You upload it on the e-Way Bill portal and the number is kept on the document.

How do I record an advance from a customer?

Record a receipt as an advance. It stays on the customer’s account and is set against their invoices as you bill.

Can freight be added to the cost of what I buy?

Yes. Landed cost spreads freight and other charges over the items on a purchase, so your stock value and margins reflect the real cost.
