I act as Treasurer for a community organisation, and want to look for a way that GnuCash can subdivide the money in the bank account into planned expenses e.g. a few members do ongoing fund raising for equipment, so could I make a sub-account of the bank account called "Equipment enhancement"? When making a deposit, allocate that money to "Assets:Current Assets:Bank Account:Equipment Enhancement" instead of the currently-used "Assets:Current Assets:Bank Account".
Mort, Why not have multiple asset accounts? For example, "Checking," "Equipment," "Petty Cash?" When you make a deposit you can split it among all pertinent accounts. They're not sub-accounts of a checking account, for example, but idividual accounts. It's similar to a set of expense accounts; e.g, Rent, Utilities (which would have sub-accounts for Electric, Gas, Water, Garbage or whatever utility expenses you have), Repair & Maintenance, etc. HTH, Rich _______________________________________________ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user ----- Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
