[GNC] Sorting accounts

[Gregory Forster]

Hi Matthew,

I created my account first  numerically: 10000 - Assets, 20000 - 
Liabilities, 30000 - Equity, 40000 - Income, 50000 - Expense.

10100 - Current Assets; 10110 - Checking Account, 10120 - Savings 
Account, 10130 - Money Market, 10140 - Investments (10141 - IRAs, 10142 
- Mutual Funds, 10143 - Stocks), etc.

10200 - Real Property

10300 - Vehicles

10400 - Equipment

10500 - Furniture and Fixtures

20100 - Current Liabilities; 20110 - Auto Loan, 20120 - Machinery loan, etc.

20200 - Long Term Liabilities; 20210 - Building Mortgage, etc.

Remember to post each account when you create or edit it to  its parent 
account. Each sub-account posts to the parent account.
For example. 50000  - Expenses; 50100 - Insurance; 50110  - Auto 
Insurance; 50111 - F-150, etc.
50000 - Expenses; 50200 - Utilities; 50210 - Electric, 50220 - Gas, etc.
