Current Assets for should be a place holder account. It was not set to Place Holder. It is now set to Place Holder. I started an invoice and Current Assets does not show in the Income Account drop down.

Re: [GNC] Issue with Current Assets?
I could be mistaken, but if you set Current Assets to a placeholder account, it should be hidden from the selection list when posting invoices to avoid this issue in the future. If that doesn't work, I'd consider it a bug. Regards, Adrien On 5/15/23 12:31 PM, Don Gray wrote: If it's the former, you might have transactions in Current Assets.

If the OP is talking about a report, those child accounts might have been added after the last time accounts were selected in Report Options. Whether hidden or not, they would be ignored by the report. I know you're aware of the following, but it might be helpful to others: When you select accounts for a report in Report Options and save the report, Saved Reports remembers the selected accounts along with the other report options. If you add an account later, you must remember to reselect accounts for the report and save the new configuration. GnuCash won't automatically add a new account to the account selection for any report, even if the new account is a subaccount of an account that is already in the report along with all of the older subaccounts. There was a fairly active thread about this some months ago. While people understood the issue, as I recall no one could think of a solution that wouldn't create other problems.

Re: [GNC] Issue with Current Assets?
I'll assume that "some number" <> $6,621.66, first. Next, is that from the Chart of Accounts, or a report? If it's the former, you might have transactions in Current Assets. If it's the latter, there may be other accounts beneath Current Assets that haven't been selected for display, but which affect a roll up value. David T.

Re: [GNC] Issue with Current Assets?
Arguably, AR is 'current', but of course, you can organize any way you want. As to the question, I'm guessing you are looking at the Total column on the Accounts tab. (if you see these figures somewhere else, please advise) That *should* be simply a roll-up total of the child accounts. An exception would be if that 'Current Assets' parent contains transactions, thus it would be the value of itself + sum-of-children. (it should instead be an empty placeholder account) Alternatively, you might have hidden child accounts. Those will get rolled up but aren't individually visible.
