No holes to punch and all this works fine...

However, There is no easy way to create a report that provides the
information to file taxes.....

99% of the ISPs should be working on a Cash Account model since they have
no inventory.. thus tax is not due until it is actually collected.. using
the tax_sum.rpt creates a report on what you billed, not what you
collected.....

I have sent an Email to IEA requesting a report that actually provides the
information that is necessary to file taxes... However I have yet to get an
answer.. I am willing to pay for this report as I am sure there are many
others that would also.....
