Hi John, I cc the list, because others might be interested in some background aspects, too. And eventually will create their localized templates.

I assume, his first file was made with a GnuCash version, which had no root node. In the german business account templates we have 2 different approachs: Some like my SKR04 have the "didactical overhead" active, passive, income, expense. Others were made by more professinal accountants, who know which class of their template belongs to which type and are annoyed by every additional keystroke. They use their 10 classes as the top level. As long as the reports get the accounts correctly grouped by type, I see no reason to require the first or latter form. The user feedback is too sparse to decide, whis form is preferred. Finally the users can modify their file by adding or removing the overhead in short time. The "Wohnungswirtschaft" account template contains accounts for: 1. Balance sheet Class 0-2 are the asets (active) Class 3 is equity Class 4 accouts are liabilities, so 3-4 are passive 2. Profit & Loss Class 5 "Leistungsverrechnung" is for internal cost accounting, (e.g. the carpenters improve the masonry and vice versa, the truck supports x hours the capentry and y hours the masonry) Class 6 Earning Class 7 internal production (House construction) cost will flow in assets Class 8 other costs Class 9 Calculations while closing the year, e.g. depreciation Regards Frank >> Begin forwarded message: >> >> From: rhabacker <notificati...@github.com> Subject: >> [Gnucash/gnucash] Fix broken german account template 'Kontenrahmen >> für Wohnungswirtschaft'.
