I am trying to create a book that includes within it records for two top-level entities that are closely coupled. For example, consider Family and Sole Proprietor. Within each, I of course want the normal subaccounts (assets, liabilities, equity, expenses, income) with their various subaccounts.
When creating a new top level account, I am forced to give it a category, which dictates the possible categories that subaccounts may use. This clearly makes it impossible to accomplish what I need (which was a suggested solution given here a few weeks ago).
It seems that it should be possible to create a new top level account that has no category associated with it and allows any categories to be applied to subaccounts.
Is this possible? Am I understanding the limitations of GC correctly?
Thanks for your help.
Cheers,
Brook
