As I also have an account for "Postage expenses", how would I have to
register the 10 bucks I spent for shipping, so that it also accounts
towards the postage expenses in general?

As I have been doing books for 501(c)3 organizations, an issue (printing and postage is a line item on the 990/990-EZ)

In traditional double entry bookkeeping there can be only one CoA hierarchy.

You would need to divide "shipping" into two child accounts <<one for postage; the other for non-postage shipping expenses>>. You would of course have a bunch of "postage" children scattered among expense accounts. You could produce a report containing just these (and their total) using an "Statement of Revenues and Expenses Report" (what a non-profit calls "Profit and Loss") by including Just these accounts for postage).
