NEWBIE: Company expenses

There are lots of ways to do it...  But GnuCash isn't really set up to
do that quite the way you want.  It's set up to maintain personal
accounts, or business accounts, but not really personal accounts for a
business.  I.e., the Expense Report feature is from the business side,
not from the employee side -- it goes into AP (the business side) not
AR (the employee side).

Your best bet is to have a company-specific credit card..  Or use
subaccounts....  Or I suppose you could use the Expense Voucher
subsystem and just apply the charges to your credit card.
