David, I could be mistaken, but I think this is influencing your
reporting problem. (if the A/P side looks like what you posted below
concerning A/R)
I'm hazarding a guess that:
Assets:Accounts Receivable:Accounts Receivable
is in GBP, though you have no indication in the name.
If so, I'd rename it.
It is possible you don't even need it if that is your book currency.
Just stick with the original Assets:Accounts Receivable, but you should
verify that. (a single currency book, just has the one account)
Either way, I don't think those USD & EUR A/R accounts should be
children of a child of A/R. (at least that is how your indentation reads
below)
Make a copy of your book and test out if one of these does the trick by
editing one bill and/or payment accordingly (you might be able to just
re-parent the account(s) though:
Assets:A/R
--Assets:A/R (GBP)
--Assets:A/R (USD)
--Assets:A/R (EUR)
or perhaps more simply:
Assets:A/R
--Assets:A/R (USD)
--Assets:A/R (EUR)
Where each child is specifically set to those named currencies and the
parent A/R is in your book currency. (assuming GBP here)
Your Assets:PayPal account tree has no bearing on the Business Features.
They *should* just be generic asset accounts.
Regards,
Adrien

I'm getting some crazy results things happening in my accounts, in that a
GBP amount of a transaction is not matching the USD amount.
I am wondering what I'm doing wrong. I have my accounts set up like this,
so the USD and EUR accounts are child accounts of the default (GBP)
account. Is that right or wrong? I'm starting to wonder now if this is all
wrong.
Assets:Accounts Receivable:Accounts Receivable
Assets:Accounts Receivable:Accounts Receivable (USD)
Assets:Accounts Receivable:Accounts Receivable (EUR)
However, I notice PayPal is not set up like that. The PayPal (GBP) and
PayPal USD are both child accounts of Assets:PayPal.
Assets:PayPal:PayPal (GBP)
Assets:PayPal:PayPal (USD)
