Charge codes are used to track accounting transactions for orders, invoices, and payments. When you set up products (add merchandise, events, memberships, etc.), you will need to select a default charge code. When someone purchases the product, the charge code is linked to the invoice, order, and payment. When you fulfill the merchandise, event registration, membership, or subscription, the charge codes are used to generate journal entries that can be uploaded to a financial package.
