The list
Each row is one item. The grid has these columns:- Code — the unique identifier you reference on invoice lines (for example
SUPPORTorLICENSE). - Name — the item’s display name. Select it to open the item for editing.
- Unit Price — the default price per unit in
AED. - Status — Active items can be selected on new documents; inactive ones are kept for history but hidden from the picker.
- Actions — Edit and Delete.
Add an item
Select Add New in the top-right to open the item form, which is organised into a few cards.1
Identification
Enter a unique Code and the Unit of Measure. The unit of measure
should follow UN/CEFACT codes — for example
EA (each), KGM (kilogram),
or LTR (litre). New items default to EA.2
Display Names
Enter the item’s Name (English) and Name (Arabic). Both are required
because they appear on the bilingual e-invoice.
3
Pricing & Details
Enter the Unit Price in
AED and, optionally, a longer Description.4
Save
New items are Active by default. Select Save to add the item to your
catalogue.
Tax and classification defaults
Beyond the basic details, an item can carry two tax-related defaults that make invoicing both faster and more accurate:- Default tax category — the VAT category that normally applies to this item (for example the UAE standard 5% rate, zero-rated, or exempt).
- Default classification — the commodity classification that describes this item: its classification scheme (list identifier) and the code itself.
The classification prefill only fills a line that has no classification yet, so
a code you typed manually on a line is never overwritten.
Row actions
- Edit opens the item form to change its details or toggle its status.
- Delete removes the item from your catalogue. Documents already issued with that item are unaffected.
