Ah.  Well, when you specify a customer for this, the entry appears on
the next invoice for the customer (though you can remove them from the
invoice).  Each line needs an income account for it, which you do line
by line (I think there's a default, but I forget).  It's a little
clunky, but it works.

I agree that the documentation on the business features is pretty bad.
I keep thinking I should write some, but since my accountant keeps
assuring me that I have no clue what I'm doing, I don't think I want
to write the docs yet :)
