At this point I’ll simply suggest referencing an Accounting textbook and/or speaking to a CPA. I’m not getting into a debate about definitions of revenue vs. income and how to treat bad debts in *your* books. As I noted, I’m not dispensing accounting advice. I’m trying to help, best I can, with how to accomplish a task using GnuCash.

Regards,
Adrien
