I do not see any products when creating a receipt?

In order to post receipt your system must have at least one product of receipt type. Please create product(s) of receipt type (e.g. "Check Receipt", "Funds Wired In") using Product Manager.

I have defined recurring invoice. How can I be sure it is set up and working properly?

In order to test your product do the following:

Post an invoice dated back several billing periods.
Delete rebill.dat file

Execute any command using WebAccountant (accmgr.pl script) – every time WebAccountant executes command it also checks rebill.dat file, if the file not found WebAccountant will run rebill.pl in background.

Please note that WebAccountant will generate new rebill.dat file after rebill.pl executed. Repeat steps 2 & 3 in order to continue testing.

What the customer statement shows and what shows up in the admin screen on accounts are reversed. I think that there may be a bug in the customer statement module?

The WebAccountant goes after real life accounting and in essence implements Accounts Receivable (A/R) sub ledger. Everything customer owes you is your company's asset or Accounts Receivable. This is why from operator's point of view (and thus via WebAccountant interface) every invoice is positive (i.e. increases your company assets).

The same invoices from customer point of view (and thus in invoices sent via email and My Account interface) are decreasing his/her account balance.
