Currently I programmed a workaround in python to get all the liabilities
from the db. Still it would be nicer, if we would have an account_type
"accurals" or another field in the table accounts to distinguish between
liability and accurals.
If I understand correctly what you mean by "accruals" you mean that
this report requires you to treat some liabilities differently than
others. You need to be able to distinguish between them. This would not
require a new "account type", just a partitioning of liabilities between
"ordinary liabilities" << a place holder under liabilities; its children
would be ordinary liabilities >> and "accruals" << a second place holder
under liabilities; its children would be accounts that are "accruals" >>
Then you only need to "scrape" the Balance Sheet as produced by gnucash.
