# Preventing Sales without Tax Rates or Financial Accounts

You can easily prevent the sale of items that have no assigned tax rate and/or financial account from the **Invoice & tax** settings on the Admin Panel.

These settings are a great way to ensure that everything you sell through Nexudus, from products to bookings, is assigned a tax rate and/or a financial account for accounting purposes.

It's also the simplest and quickest way to reduce invoice transfer errors if you use one of our [accounting integrations](/v3/docs/accounting).

          Make sure you have [financial accounts](/v3/docs/financial-accounts), [tax rates](/v3/docs/tax-rates) and a [chart of accounts](/v3/docs/chart-of-accounts) set up before enabling these settings.

All set! Any new item sale in Nexudus will now require an assigned tax rate and/or a financial account. We recommend you have a quick look at your chart of accounts by clicking on the **Chart** tab to check that all items you sell through Nexudus have a financial account and/or a tax rate assigned to them.
