Both Michael & user 'flywire' have offered the 'how to do that' answer.
Michael's answer involves out-of-the box reports that are further
manipulated outside of GnuCash to achieve the desired end result, using
the standard method of entering transactions. (this is quite normal for
anything but the most basic of reporting needs)
Flywire's answer involves a custom report that someone else was kind
enough to craft, that you have to add to GnuCash yourself first and then
use 'tags' in your transactions for your extra reporting dimension.
But in both cases, none of us know what the legal requirements of your
jurisdiction are. We can make suggestions and offer general guesses
based on the reasoning of what the term 'restricted funds' means with
respect to where they belong in the account tree, but if your accountant
or legal counsel tell you otherwise, you have to follow what *they* tell
you, not take the suggestions here. If you are not sure how to follow
*their* advice using GnuCash, we can probably help, or at least suggest
that you may have to do some finishing work on your reports with other
software.

Think of funds accounting as different colours of money. Every account and
every category can include any colour of money.
I need the gross figure for each account and category, the figure for each
account and category broken out into the colours of money that it’s
comprised of, and I need to report on the overall financial position and
movements in any given period of each colour of money, detailing which
accounts and categories it’s comprised of.
How do I accomplish this using GnuCash?
