Invoices are a little more difficult.  Say we make an invoice today.  It will show up on the revenue report today.  At this point it is not paid for ..  Three days later the customer comes to pick it up and pay for it. If I print out the revenue report now it does not show up on the report. So in this case I have either extra cash, extra money on the credit card or an extra check.  Is there a report or a query I can run that will tell me what invoices were paid?

This is actually working exactly as it is designed.  If you create an
invoice on the 1st, the revenue report reflects the revenue from the
transaction date.  So if you go back and edit an invoice on the 3rd, you are
editing the revenue for that transaction which is the 1st.

There are two things that can help you.  The first is to use the "Accounts -
Cash Drawer" functions.  The combined cash drawer report will show you all
of the money that went in or out of the drawers on the day that it was
changed.  So even if you edit a transaction from a day prior, it will show
up on the drawer reports on the day that it was modified.

The other is to use the Sales - Order function.  This allows you to set up
what the customer is going to purchase on one day, and then ship (transfer)
that order to an invoice when they actually pick it up.  This is the proper
way of doing what you want and would allow your sales reports to match the
revenue reports as well.
