I'm having a similar need and here is one transaction.

2014.07.17        Superstore - fuel
    Expense: fuel - gas - clear: 9350.10.51.01                    $   19.05
    Expense: fuel - gas - clear: 9764.01.04.00                    $    4.76
    Expense: GST -- personal: 8762.10.10.20                        $    0.95
    Expense: GST - business: 8762.10.10.10                        $    0.24
    Asset: PC Financial: 1002.70.20.00                           $   -25.00

Above is one transaction - - -  not the most complicated but one of
the not simple ones.


So to have the accounts work as sub accounts would this work?

2014.07.17        Superstore - fuel
        Expense: fuel - gas - clear - personal
    $    19.05
       ; 9350: 01: 51: 01
                $    19.05
        Expense: fuel - gas - clear - business
    $    4.76
       ; 9764: 9764: 01: 04: 00
         $     4.76
        Expense: GST -- personal
      $     0.95
       ; 8762: 10: 10: 20
             $    0.95
        Expense: GST - business
      $    0.24
        ; 8762: 10: 10: 10
             $    0.24
        Asset: PC Financial
           $  25.00
        ; 1002: 70: 20: 00
             $   25.00


This would mean 2 lines for every item of information.
Would doing this give me multiple level sub-accounts?
Is there a 'cleaner' or 'clearer' way of getting the same
possibilities of output?
(Need the sub-account thing and want clear readable records.)


Any advice would be appreciated (including you're daft (or its
equivalent) but that
bit of info is already known here - -- grin!)!
(In my records the $ line up nicely!! Formatting here is challenging!!)

Regards

Dee
