Why do I need to save products and services in Afirmo?

Afirmo's invoicing uses a saved Products and Services list rather than one-off line items. This keeps your chart of accounts clean for reporting and makes recurring invoicing faster.

If your invoices are mostly bespoke (for example, building works with custom scopes per job), the simplest workaround is to create generic items like "Building works" or "Consulting hours" and then use the description field on each invoice to add the specific detail.

To add a product or service:

1. Go to Sales > Product & Services
2. Click + Add
3. Fill in the item name, description, price, tax rate and category
4. Save

You can edit or remove items at any time.
