Jim,
we are building the accounting component and you kindly offered to help:
if you are unhappy with the documentation, dig into the code and write it.
You know what?
After about 5 years working in this project I'm getting bored of
people's complaints...

Very frustrating.
I think there should only be 5 accountTypes - Revenue, Expense, Asset,
Liability, Owners Equity, and the account classes just blown away.
That way we're in compliance with the book.
An account is not a class of accounts receivable, it's a child of
accounts receivable. It's also an Asset,
We seem to use the accountType to figure out which GL account to put
a transaction into. I think this is silly.. if you can get the type,
you can get the account... and besides you can have multiple
accountReceivables, depending on how many customers you give credit
to. So which one do you put it into? The service I was just looking
at doesn't go any further.
It's all very confusing, with no documentation that I can find on it.

What is the difference between the the type (glAccountTypeId) and the
class (glAccountClassId) of a GL account (GlAccount)?
In the Data Model Resource Book there is no mention of classes but my
guess is that the information that we store in the class is the same
that in the Book is stored in the type field... am I wrong?
Thanks,
Jacopo
