gnu cash v 2.6.19 on Mac OS X 10.13.3

Thank you Dave H. for your quick response.

The Account Type display box shows only:  Bank, Cash, Asset, Credit Card, Liability, Stock, Mutual Fund, A/Receivable and A/Payable.  

“Expense" and “Income" are NOT showing up in the Account Type box.  That is my question.  How do I fix that?




kind regards, Dan

Click on Accounts tab if not already the focus, click New icon (Create a New Account), select "New top level account" in Parent Account listbox, select "Expense" in Account Type listbox and click OK to create a top level expense account, Then create your expense accounts under the top level expense account just created.  Same holds good for Income Accounts.

Easier to start with one of the pre-defined COA's and adjust to suit perhaps :-)

Cheers Dave H.

Hello,
While attempting to set up a chart of accounts, account type does not include Income or Expense.  Is there a fix or a table I can update?

Thank you.  I am testing this system for simple accounting/bookkeeping for a friend’s small business.
