[GNC] Frustration (recently used files)

Andrew,

Are these rental properties are all part of a single business owned by a
single legal entity? If so do you really need to maintain  4 sets of books?  

It is possible within Gnucash to set up an accounting structure in which the
four properties would be separate with their on income,expense,asset
accounts. There might be some complications around accounts
payable/receivable as the business features are based around a single
account of each type though. You could have under each of the top level
accounts a sub-account for each property with the account substructure you
currently have in multiple books/datafiles under the property subaccount in
each of the top level account types.

This would avoid having to open and close multiple sets of books. You could
still create individual reports for each property by restricting the
accounts a report includes It also simplifies your backup- only one file
