Thanks for all the help and suggestions!!! Very happy but not sue yet if it really got clear yet.
Now I wonder: Does it really matter that much what type I use for a new account? And could I change this Type as I find out I was wrong or think an other might be more convenient? As long as I put credit and debit right it might not influence the calculations... Or does the program handles my data very different or is only the sorting different? But I can choose to sort by group or by number as well I think. (I have been doing my own accounting for over 20 years, including complicated export from Filemaker, converting it and importing the journal records in my accounting software. But now changing to GnuCash everything seems different and I feel a newbee very much. And I am not a educated accountant too.)
