Form defaults for reports

[Patch]

I don’t really care how Manager ensures cash / accrual defaults to the accounting standard a business elected to report to their tax authority. I only care that it gets it right.

Form defaults was suggested only because it is in the setting tab with other business set up parameters and the thing it actually effects is the default reports setting.

@Tut

cash/accrual accounting basis can now be set before any invoices are created. … whether intentionally or accidentally, I do not know. But the reversion to the original behavior is welcome, because it allows the choice to be made when a business is first being set up, rather than after accounting records are entered.

If this behaviour is intended to persist for some time, an alternative would be for Manager to use this setting for the reports default for any new reports. Doing so would achieve the same end result and not require any new settings. It would also implement an idea Lubos had several years ago

Set manager to default to acrrual or cash based accounting

I think I can make Manager smarter to provide better defaults. For example, if you have most reports created on cash-basis, then Manager can automatically switch the default to cash-basis for new reports. Remind me in a month to do this.
