Hi! can I choose accrual/cash method in desktop version?- I read the guidence, but there is no such feature as stated in the guidence that I could select(
thanks
You say you’ve read the guides? Hmmm, weird that you didn’t find Choose between accrual or cash basis accounting | Manager I suggest next time you use the search function. 
you misunderstand me- there no such button in my desktop version - on page this guidance refer to.
so when I select summary =>edit in the pop up screen I could choose to show balance for a specific period and to show/not to show zero balance
The guide has a prominent note that says:
“Accounting method cannot be selected until after the first sales or purchase invoice has been created.”
Have you created a sales or purchase invoice?
If you have, share a screen shot to show us where you expect to find the choice for cash or accrual basis.
I have only put the name of the business, selected some additional reports and add 1 supplier. no purchase/sales order, invoices or other stuff was created yet.
pls see screenshot attached - my understanding is that in summary, I should have this choice of methods 
That would be your problem then
thanks, clear now :-). I will try
