[GNC] Issue with Current Assets?

Arguably, AR is 'current', but of course, you can organize any way you want.

As to the question, I'm guessing you are looking at the Total column on 
the Accounts tab. (if you see these figures somewhere else, please advise)

That *should* be simply a roll-up total of the child accounts.

An exception would be if that 'Current Assets' parent contains 
transactions, thus it would be the value of itself + sum-of-children. 
(it should instead be an empty placeholder account)

Alternatively, you might have hidden child accounts. Those will get 
rolled up but aren't individually visible.

Regards,
Adrien
