How to use Sanad
Short articles for IT support and workspace owners. Search a screen, follow the steps, then open the app and do the same.
Getting started
Records and dashboards
Design a record list
Create a custom list: pick a template or start blank, set the name and dashboard options, add columns, then save. Daily entry is in My Records.
Add and manage entries
Open a list under My Records, add or edit rows, import Excel, filter the table, and download a barcode label when the list has a barcode field.
Home dashboard and revenue
See KPIs, charts, and plan usage on home for lists with Include in revenue dashboard turned on.
Inventory records on invoices and ETA
Turn a product list into invoice lines that print locally and submit to the Egyptian Tax Authority.
Sales and accounting
Sales invoices
Create, print, correct, and optionally send Egyptian-pound invoices, with per-line discounts, an internal Number (INV-…) and a separate ETA number (ETA-…), plus local and ETA statuses.
Sales returns
Return part or all of a posted invoice: proportional refund, remaining qty tracking, and stock restore for scanned items.
ETA e-invoicing
Connect the workspace to the Egyptian Tax Authority and submit posted invoices.
Chart of Accounts
Egypt-style 4-digit chart: starter set, Excel, and tree view.
Team and access
Workspaces
Switch, create, and configure company spaces you own — including the invoice business profile.
Team and invitations
Invite people by email, pick a role, change roles later, or revoke pending invites.
Roles and permissions
Owner designs permission packs. Team assigns those packs to people.
Plans and billing
What each plan unlocks, how to request a change, and what Pending payment means.
Trading
Trading Pack overview
Summit workspaces get suppliers, purchase receipts, returns, AR/AP balances, payments, opening balances, and trading reports. Cash sales stay simple; credit sales post to the customer balance.
Suppliers
Maintain your supplier directory before recording purchase receipts or opening balances.
Purchase receipts
Record stock received from a supplier. Stock and supplier balance (AP) update together when you save.
Purchase returns and exchange
Return goods to a supplier or run an exchange (return + replacement receipt) from one original receipt.
Payments and balances
Record money paid to suppliers or received from customers against open AR/AP charges. On-credit sales invoices create customer balances automatically.
Opening balances (one-time)
Set starting stock and supplier/customer balances before day-to-day trading. The wizard locks after the first real receipt or posted invoice.
Trading reports
Purchases net, payments in the period, and stock on hand — using the same period selector as the home dashboard.
