This might be overkill, but it might work too:
You could create an 'Invoice' and list the players/teams as line items.
(the 'Customer' here can just be 'Players' or some such and probably
doesn't matter)
In an invoice you *can* reorder the line items to suit your needs. (it
can be cumbersome to figure out, but *without selecting* a line item,
right-click on it and choose *move up/down*.
Now, when posting the invoice, uncheck the box to 'accumulate splits'.
(alternatively, this is can be set in Preferences > Business > General >
'Accumulate Splits on Post')
When you view one of the affected registers either in Show
Splits/Auto-Split/Transaction Journal mode, you'll see the split lines
in the same order as the line-items on the invoice.
You can then apply individual player payments to that invoice. This
won't let you track individual player AR, but it accomplishes your first
goal. And you can still see who paid for which game. Be sure to put
their name as the Description/Payee when recording the payment. (and
maybe the game date/info/number in the Notes/Memo field for good measure)
A Customer Report on that 'customer' can show 'document links' and
you'll see the individual player payments there too.

Adrien

Thanks for that suggestion. I fiddled around with it for an hour or
so, but couldn't quite get it working the way I wanted. But I can see
the possibilities. I might have another go later.
Of course, just being able to shift items up and down in the GnuCash
window would be simpler for the user, but it rather looks as if that
has never been implemented.
