If Eric follows your advice to number all the accounts, he can save time
by adding the Account Code column in the Accounts panel, then
double-clicking in that column for the first account, entering the code,
and repeating for each account in turn.

That also makes it easier, by keeping the context on screen at all times
during the numbering process.
