Hi, Gary, I am not an accountant, but I would suggest setting up Income accounts as: Income:Haircuts:Dallas Income:Haircuts:Los Angeles ... Income:Hair Coloring:Dallas Income:Haircuts:Los Angeles and so on for the rest of the Income and Expense Accounts. It is also possible to use one income account - say Income:Haircuts, put the location name in the Memo field, and then generate reports for Haircuts by location, but you have to be fussy about putting the location in every time, and be consistent with spelling (e.g. did you mean “Los Angeles” or “L.A.” or “LA”?)
