How careful are you folks about changing past journal data, eg to clean up the
account tree ?
I heard one person who tries to append only.
But as my chart of accounts evolves, I want to rename/split/merge accounts in old transactions too, otherwise my reports
become cluttered.
But that makes it hard to recreate old reports, to verify agreement with related/derived historical documents, and
probably increases the risk of introducing errors (eg "de-reconciling").
Perhaps you refactor your current journal freely, but archive a read-only
snapshot once a year ? Once a month ?
