   Hi Tim
   Your question has created a lot of discussion but I'm uncertain as to
   whether it has answered your question.
   As I understand it, you wanted a report listing (parent) accounts and
   sub accounts (or "children" accounts) together with their various
   totals.
   Have you tried the Account Summary report?  It lists all accounts and
   you can add all sub-accounts and have their total together with main
   account totals.  The Options tab allows you to change how things are
   displayed/totalled, at what date, etc etc.  Check it out if you haven't
   already.
   I hope that might be what you were looking for.
   GnuCash is very useful accounting software for my purposes - thanks to
   the developers!  The more you use it and "play" with it, the more
   useful you will probably find it.
   Good luck!
   Cheers

I have been wishing that there were a way to configure a report that would
include the total of each account plus all of its children. Quicken used to
do this routinely. Is there already an easy way to do this or is this a wish
list item?

Thanks

Tim
