Small Business Accounting 2006 question

[Miles]

I'm evaluating sba 2006 and noticed something I find quite interesting. In
setting up the company and so forth, I put in my shipping terms and methods
thinking "hey, this is pretty cool." Then I went to make an invoice for some
products that I had entered and found that there's no way to enter shipping!
This is most disturbing. I can describe how I ship stuff, but I can't charge
for it? Sure, I can add another item called "S & H" and add that to every
invoice, but I'd have to manually calculate it every time. What a pain. I
charge a flat percentage on shipping products so its pretty simple, but the
one time I forget to add this line item i'm out $$. I really like everything
else, especially the integration with outlook, but this quite honestly may be
a show stopper for me. A shipping or custom footer would be excellent. Is
there something I'm missing? Is this possibly a future enhancement?

Thanks for any input.

Miles,
This is currently a missing feature in SBA 2006. To date you will need to
include this as a line item for shipped products. You could do this since you
charge a flat rate, just don't forget as you mentioned.
You should repost on the SBA general group as a suggestion / needed function:
