Thanks so much for the reply!  We typically do use invoices to track receivables, the problem is some of our clients want us to hold off on invoicing them until the end of a project which could take several months, during which time each month should be accruing earned income.  Rather than create a new invoice each month (B/c our clients just want one invoice at the end), I think we will have to do the Journal Entries to CR income and DR Receivables each month to make sure we are accruing that.  The problem I see with reversing that out once the invoice is created, you are back to the initial problem where income is all going to be booked to the date the invoice is entered rather than on the month it was actually earned.  Is there not a way to link those two (the JEs for earned income and the total ending invoice at the end of a project) in QB without creating a duplicate of the AR?  Thanks!
