Organising the chart of accounts

The chart of accounts is simply the list of all ledger accounts that are used by the book. This is accessed from the “Accounts” menu item on "Accounts" menu that is accessed from the main menu, or from the “Accounts” toolbar button.

Screen: Accounts List

You can use the accounts screen to create new accounts, delete accounts that are not used and not required, to make changes to existing accounts, and to reorganise the order of accounts.

The order of accounts is used on reports and on the “Current Balance” and “Current P&L” screens.
