Unfortunately there isn't a good way to handle "invoice" and "cash
accounting". By definition, invoicing implies accrual.. We've had
some discussions earlier about this.
My original idea was to write a report that would discount unpaid
invoices and remove the transactions from the balance sheet and P&L
reports.. But that wouldn't put the transactions back in at the
right place.
The only other alternative is to chance the way invoices are posted
in Cash v. Accrual accounting methods....
