Item Attributes

The 2010 versions of AccountEdge introduce some new fields for tracking item attributes. Items now have a Brand field that lets you choose from a list a brand that is associated with a particular item. You’ll also see that we’ve added a Weight field and Tags.

Tags are interesting because you can create them on the fly and assign as many as you like to an item, using them for categorization. The benefit of Brands and Tags is that you’ll be able to filter reports by these fields. For example, you could filter a report by the tag Bicycle or to get more specific, Mountain Bike, and then by a specific brand. You could also use a combination of tags like Mountain Bike and Road Bike, but not BMX.

We’ve also added the ability to attach up to three pictures to your items.
