[GNC] How can I book Sales when invoice is paid vs when posted?
Sometimes I send an invoice to a customer in year 1, but the payment is received in year 2. Gnucash always seems to credit the Income/Sales account when posted, but then my income for Year 1 taxes is overstated, and Year 2 is understated.I know you can select different accounts receivable accounts for the post but how can I not boost Sales until the invoice is paid?

Re: [GNC] How can I book Sales when invoice is paid vs when posted?
Thank you all for helpful responses so far. It is too bad that accrual vs cash invoice accounting is not a setting. At any rate I usually only have a handful of outstanding invoices at a time.I propose the following: 1) At end of year, figure out the total dollar amount of unpaid invoices. 2) Create a new Income account "unpaid sales" 3) Debit sales by the unpaid total and credit "unpaid sales" 4) Ideally see if "unpaid sales" can be omitted from the income statement report. 5) Otherwise, manually subtract "unpaid sales" from Total income to get income tax liability 6) At start of next year, keep "unpaid sales" but zero out all other income accounts (transfer to year-end equity - my usual system for income and expenses) 7) During the year, either move the total back to sales immediately or when each invoice is paid, manually debit "unpaid sales" and credit "sales" for that amount. Does that sound right?

Re: [GNC] Reconciliation Roll Back (Peter Cuthbert)
I find this has been a longstanding problem. Every once in a while, old transactions get unreconciled. I always open GC the same way so I'm sure I'm not opening backups.
