What, exactly, do sub-accounts do? The P&L Statement doesn’t sub-total anything, regardless of how accounts are grouped, and the new New Total button won’t put a total line within a group.
I have my income accounts set up like this:
But the resulting P&L statement lists all 6 income accounts in a single section (with just one total, for all of income) rather than in a Sales Income section and an Other Income section, each with its own subtotal.
And the heading accounts don’t seem to appear anywhere else, either. All the account lists I can find just seem to list all relevant income accounts together, rather than showing the created hierarchy.
Please, can someone provide some documentation. Now that Multi-Step Income Statements are gone, my reports are not working the way they were before this.
I actually think it was much better before. The associated changes to the Summary screen are really unfortunate. It was better before, with Accounts receivable broken out and displayed by aged receivables and with Cash on hand also broken out. (I tried uninstalling and going back to the old version, but that corrupted my data. Happily, I had a backup.)
Old Summary (better!):
New Summary (not better!):
