Frank, I’ve been following this for a while, and perhaps I’m not understanding, but are the groupings just presentational?
If that’s the case, I would think the place to address this is in the report options, not the account structure. (you could use any structure you need, and easily re-group based on the rule you decide or need to follow.) Regards, Adrien > On Jul 25, 2018, at 2:53 AM, Frank H.
