Not an accountant either, Howard, but I believe the approach varies according 
to whether your books are kept on a cash or an accrual basis.

If cash, then reports are based on the date when you received income, or the 
date you made a payment for expenses.

I don’t use the business features, but I think that you will be working on an 
accrual basis, and have reports on Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable 
which carry over the end of the financial year.
