[GNC] AR Asset differen t GL codes

[David Cousens]

Teresa,

The business features in GnuCash do not support multiple A/R accounts. There
is only a single A/R account in GnuCash. I also tried doing this several
years ago and discovered that while you could create A/R subaccounts, the
business features did not function with any sub accounts by design. 

It is not really necessary to have more than one A/R account as all the
invoices are linked to a specified customer and bills to a specified vendor,
so you can use filtering on the customer to select customer specific
information when you need it and remove that filtering when you don't in the
relevant reports and you an customize the reports to your needs. The same
applies to dealing with accounts payable and bills.  If you require
information that a particular product is responsible for outstanding debts
then this cannot be obtained directly.

The  detail of information on your IT products and their profiability will
be obtainable from the the structure of your Income and Expense accounts,
not from the asset accounts and A/R and A/P.

Hope this helps to clarify the situation
