Hi,

This is the difference between "accruals" accounting and "cash" accounting. 

Basically, GC's invoice module uses accruals - the tax is calculated based on 
when you create the invoice, not when you are paid.

As a thought, you could look at total Income:sales, then (manually) deduct the 
balance of the A/R account on your reporting date - so if you have written an 
invoice for say £100, but only had partial payment of £75, sales should show 
£100 and A/R still show £25 as owing. 

HTH,
Maf.
