Simple example:

000-000  Default, “Balance Sheet” entries

000-001  Operations      “Indirect” (“Overhead”, “G&A”)
000-002  Finance
000-003  Marketing/Sales
000-004  Health & Safety

100-000  Hospitality   “Direct” (COGS, Revenue)
200-000  Retail
300-000  Education
400-000  Health/Hospitals

What is the best way(s) to limit the use of the 000-000 Subaccount to only in conjunction with Balance Sheet Accounts?

...the 000-00# Subaccounts on a) on non-job (e.g. “X”) transactions and b) to be paired w/only indirect, overhead Accounts?
 

...the #00-000 Subaccounts a) on PROJECTS only and b) to be paired w/only direct, COGS, Revenue Accounts?

Hello ​@Bob Stewart ,

Restriction Groups (Link) may be used to connect valid Account-Subaccount combinations.
