    Hi Paul,

    In the current Home and Business 2015, new and paid invoices do not get posted. Let's say you mark an open invoice as paid, you will need to record it manually into your account so you can see it on your reports.

    Regards

    Hi Paul,

    Thanks for your feedback.  

    A few users were disappointed with the change to Cash-basis only in the introduction of Home & Business in 2005.  It was a business decision to better align the two products to the main themes of their customer base - simple accounting structures for personal finance and formal accounting practices in the business range of products (then QuickBooks, now Reckon Accounts Business).

    We understand that for some users the handling of open invoices and their payment in the Cashbook series was a key appeal of the programme.  We are sorry to disappoint customers but we feel that business needs were better met in a dedicated business range rather than trying to offer both in the one programme that was essentially designed for personal needs.  

    We believe the business functionality that exists in Home & Business is adequate for the needs of a business small enough to be run from the home.   

    Hope this explains our decision a little better. 


    regards,
    John
