Assuming you mean the business feature invoicing, the answer is no.  In fact,
you can't set up an SX to apply a business payment, either.

See #1

Did you try the Balance Sheet?

Not in 1.8.  This will be more likely to be possible in a future version.

Again, not in 1.8, but I think I already support this in CVS HEAD (e.g.
1.10/2.0).
