You might be able to do it with the federated engine:

Fire a trigger on your main tables which update some row in a foreign MySql database used for accounting. I've not tried this but the theory is sound.

Is it true that a single mysql server can be a slave to only one master?

So if you need to replicate a dozen databases into a single reporting server, you need to have a chain of a dozen servers in between? Someone shared that to me, but it didn't make much sense.

In oracle we have the following options to replicate:
Snapshots (also known as materialized views) for individual tables
Standby (similar to mysql, but replicates the entire db)
Streams (pick whatever you need out of sql stream)

So for reporting purposes from multiple db's, you'd mostly likely pick snapsohts or streams.

Thanks,
