This sounds to me as some kind of pre-aggregation is made with this account:
During a business transaction some information is written into this 'account'
or whatever we want to call it (other ERP call this 'information-structures').
Afterwards is it much faster to report on this than running a report over all
sales documents. So it is a kind of light BI-structure.

Other reason for a separate ledger posting could be that in some
organizational units e.g. different material prices or values are to be
tracked.

Might that be the reason for this special account?
