Loyalty Fund Account

[Jill Terry]

Thanks for your reply, unfortunately I'm still at a loss how to do 
this.  Apologies if I quoted incorrectly, I simply copied and pasted 
from the website. I've no idea what you mean when you say, So it does......

You say that It depends on the point in the account tree you are 
creating the new account under. I have tried creating a new account 
under Assets > Current Assets and cannot change the type from 
Currency.   I have also tried creating a new top level account but still 
cannot change type from Currency and still no NEW available.

Cheers
Jill
