Odel,

In most, if not all, North American jurisdictions, the legislation states something like: "taxes shall be remitted on all amounts collected or that will be collected on sales in the reporting period." In other words, the liability is created when the sale is made. That is why the software works this way.

It may be possible to create something close to what you want with some kind of custom report (in GridView or Crystal reports) that would calculate the taxes due on unpaid invoices and subtact that from the booked tax liability in the General Ledger.Your Adagio consultant would be able to help with that, if you wish, but it would require the purchase of one of those reporting modules if you do not already have one.
