Measurement Setup & Functional Structure
Structured Transactions Without Expanding Your Chart of Accounts
Define measurements and manage sales and expense items with reporting clarity built in.
What This Module Covers
Custom measurement types, structured item management, bulk item control, default account and tax assignment, and item-level reporting.
Measurement Management
Custom measurements can be defined to match operational needs while maintaining structured consistency across transactions. Visibility controls ensure only relevant measurement types are shown, with support for mapping internal measurements to government formats when required.

Items can be managed in bulk and are reflected directly in grouped and comparative Profit and Loss reports, providing item-level visibility without structural disruption.
