Thanks for all these suggestions - I'd like to focus on one particular
issue - automation and automatic checking to prevent common problems
and mistakes:

* If someone doesn't invoice for a month, I'd like to be able to
select "Projected payment delayed by 1 month" and have it a) change
the forecast b) keep a version history.

* If people are paying tax under PAYE, I'd like to just be able to say
"This person has a gross salary of X" and have the system tell me how
much tax we need to save each month, regardless of how the tax system
changes under our feet.

* I'd like the system to nag me, by saying "You projected this payment
would have been made by date Y. Has it been made? If not, when do you
expect it?"

* I'd like the system to understand VAT, and say "You just got paid
£100 for X. Would it be correct to assume that 17.5% of this is VAT?"

* And of course I'd like it to produce lovely reports for all of these things.

Am I, perhaps, asking for moon on a stick? Or do things like Sage and
Intuit just do this?

thanks,

Tom
