5.  In the Home window, from the Setup menu, choose System 

Settings, then Linked Accounts, and finally Customers And 
Sales. 

6.  In the Accounts Receivable field, select the Accounts 

Receivable account that you just created, and click OK. 

Once you have set up these accounts, the procedure for entering 
vendor prepayments and customer deposits is the same as for 
accrual-basis accounting. 

If you record an entry and then find you made a mistake, you 
must correct the error manually. 

From time to time, you may need to convert your cash-basis 
records to accrual-basis accounting. Most banks require that you 
show them accrual-basis financial statements when you apply 
for a loan. Also, you may need accrual-basis reports to calculate 
your taxes. 

You can easily create accrual-basis reports using the procedure 
described in this section. First, you create a temporary copy of 
your data files. Then, switch to accrual-basis accounting in the 
temporary copy and print the reports you need. Last, you delete 
the temporary copy. 

1.  In the Home window, on the File menu, choose Save to save 

work from the current session in your cash-basis company 
files. 

2.  In the Home window, on the File menu, choose Save As.
