Does this mean that I should be writing the accounts as something like this: 9350: 10: 51: 01 : fuel - gas - clear where breakdown is something like: 9350 - meta account 10 - 1st level sub-account 51 - designates fuel 01 - designates a particular kind of fuel For the second part (your query) could it be written as ledger reg Expense: 9350 ie can I query without using the text portion? (That would be the easiest for combining the sub-accounts back into their 'tax' accounts (which in this case is '9350'). Thanking you for your assistance and consideration!
