Click the green button 'Activate' on the line mentioning 'Empty Goods'.
If you want to add a new product, an additional field 'Empty goods' will appear at the bottom:
You can also extend your existing products with an empty goods field and value: the field for empty goods will appear in every product file. If you don't want to manually add this value for every product, use the import functionalities of BestInvoicing to update your products all at once.
When creating an invoice for a product with an empty goods value, you'll also be able to calculate the eventual returned empty goods.
In the section 'Document' at the bottom of the interface, a field 'Returned empty goods' will appear. If this is completed, a calculation with the invoiced goods will be made.
