> Not all expenses are “equal”.  There are some that you would want to
designate as different from other more general expenses and then be able to
view them in a report along with all the other general expenses.  In
Quickbooks this is done by assigning a class to the particular expense and
running a custom summary report with class columns.  Any ideas if doable.

Based on a web search, that QuickBooks setup is likely a P&L by Class
report. I've refactored account-filter-matrix.scm with what I think are
more reasonable defaults.

Could you test this out to confirm if the layout is suitable for your
workflow?

How to load the custom report:
You can find the step-by-step setup guides on
https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Custom_Reports#Load_the_report_from_a_user_account
You will need to add the following line to your config-user.scm file:
(load (gnc-build-userdata-path "account-filter-matrix.scm"))

Setting the options:
Once loaded, you can use the report options tab to isolate and display your
filtered expenses alongside your general ledger accounts.
