Use the Business Units tab to set up your business units before using the Sales system or creating a purchase orders. Business units are normally stock locations.

Business units are used to separate purchase orders, items, sales and assets from other business units in your organisation's sales entry points. For example, you can have a sales system set up for the book room from which students can purchase books, stationery and some other items. The items that you are selling are set up in Item Maintenance.
