What you are looking for is something more along the lines of operational and/or cost-center accounting.
You *can* achieve that with an unconventional account tree, but you’ll encounter some oddities, like this one. You can export your P&L to a spreadsheet to manipulate it like you want with COGS broken out separately and even add a Operating Revenue or similar line after. Otherwise, investigate using the SQlite backend with Piecash to generate a custom P&L. (you could use Scheme within GnuCash to do this, but that is a steeper learning curve) Regards, Adrien > On May 2, 2019, at 8:33 PM, Jimmy R via gnucash-user > <gnucash-user@gnucash.org> wrote: > > I've created a top level accounts called COGS which is fine, but when I run a > report it is shown within the Expenses.
