Someone Please Help!!

I'm setting up new Item Groups for non stock items, like services. When I create the new Item Group, I must define a number of accounts on the set-up tab such as;
SALES ORDER
Packing Slip
Invoice
Commission

PURCHASE ORDER
Packing Slip
Invoice
Consumption
Fixed Receipt Price

INVENTORY
Inventory
Inter-unit Offset
Fixed Receipt Price
Variance

PRODUCTION
Items in Process
Costing

My question is since these are for non stock items, like services why would I need to define and inventory account or a Packing Slip account, etc? For many of these fields we don't even have an accoount in our current COA that would fit. Is there any way around this? Thanks

Define the accounts for the transactions you are going to perform on the service item.
Why do you use a profit loss journal for service item? Then don't define them.
Most of case you will be using the invoice and production related accounts for these items.
