David,
Adding to the Appendices is, I think, a serious mistake. The Appendices
are where good intentions go to be ignored and forever enshrined in
2006. Take a look at the history and content of, for example, Appendices
A and B for example.

Perhaps it would be better to format it as an appendix with
reference(s) in appropriate places in the body of the Guide. This
would allow more detail for those who are interested without boring
those who do not need the information.

I agree with Frank's suggestions. The Guide would be the best spot
(probably in the Business Setup area of chapter 13). And you do
need to expand abbreviations at the first instance.
From an editorial perspective, I think a little more explanatory
background would help users understand the purpose here. Also,
full account hierarchies are important (unless the GST account is
a top level account?).

Hi Chris,
in theory the Guide is the right place, but if you think it still
needs
improvement, you can put it in the wiki.
Note on your draft: Abbreviations should be defined on the first usage
or, if they are used in different places in the glossary and
linked from
the first occurrence in each page.
Regards
Frank
