    Hi Fullick 

     

    Thanks for your post.  On an accrual basis all transactions dated within that quarter will be reported as accrual is based on the transaction date, not when payment was made or received.  An invoice dated in December but paid in January will be reported in the Oct-Dec BAS. The cash basis is based on when payment is made or received, an invoice dated in December but paid in January will be reported in the Jan-Mar BAS. So I would expect to see all transactions dated in the quarter to appear in the Accrual reports for that quarter, regardless of whether they have been paid or not.
