Frequently asked questions

01How do I log income in DairyLogs?

Open Finance → Income, add the entry with amount and paid status, and link a customer when relevant.

02What if the buyer has not paid yet?

Save income as unpaid/partial; it appears under Receivables until you record the receipt.

03Should every milk sale be typed again under Income?

Prefer posting from Milk → Usage / the income flow your farm already uses so litres and money stay one event—not two manual entries.
