hm, ok, that works. Sorry to continue on this thread, but the customer
report doesn't seem to take into account credits (? positive amounts
in the "invoice" column) added to accounts receivable that aren't
linked to a specific invoice. In general, that makes sense, but on
occasion I have to add a few small things for which there won't be an
invoice. To get it to work with the customer report, would it be best
if I just create a dummy invoice?

Thanks so much for your advice so far. This is a great piece of software.
