1 min read

Sometimes suppliers offer free items or bonus quantities when making a purchase. BillBook allows you to record these free items properly, ensuring your inventory and cost calculations remain accurate. 🚀📦


🔹 Two Ways to Add Free Items in Purchases #

✅ Solution 1: Enter Free Items with 0 Price #

  • Go toPurchases → Add Purchase
  • Add the free product as a separate entry.
  • Set the Purchase Price to $0.00.

📌 Best For: When you want to track free items separately but not affect cost calculations.


✅ Solution 2: Adjust the Unit Cost with Average Price #

Instead of adding the free item separately, you can distribute the cost across the purchased items.

Example Calculation:

  • You buy 10 units at $2 eachTotal cost = $20
  • Supplier gives 2 extra units for free
  • Your total quantity becomes 12
  • The new unit cost is $20 ÷ 12 = $1.66 per unit

Steps in BillBook:

  1. Go toPurchases → Add Purchase
  2. Enter the total quantity received (including free items).
  3. Use the adjusted unit price ($1.66 in this case).
