There should be no need to create expense sub-accounts for vendors if all you
want is a way to see how much you spent with them. (or still owe them at any
point) That would also get quite messy if a vendor might sell items that fit in
more than one expense account.
Create your vendors, create
The import should assign them to whatever accounts you map. (the ‘other side’
of each being the account you are importing) If any do not, they’ll be assigned
to the imbalance account so they’ll be easy to find and fix.
The only issue with balances is that you’ll have to adjust your opening

You can export the chart of accounts via File - > Export Accounts. But it
will not include your customers, vendors, etc. It only saves your account
tree.
Note that there is no real need to start over. Gnucash is quite happy to
just continue, and the reports handle multiple years in one data

I have been using Gnucash by putting the file on a dropbox folder, and then
using the dropbox app for Windows 10 on each of the computers to access and
synch the dropbox folder and its contents. The LCK file that Gnucash
creates is saved to the dropbox account, and so other users on other

You could add it, but you'd need to edit the source and rebuild GnuCash.
The register structure is hard-coded.

Martijn,
It is not a good idea to have two people editing the data file at the same
time. At some point in the future, this will be possible, but it is not safe
right now.
Two people can use the software from two different machines (with the file
access over a network) but only one should

snrm,
It has been a long time since I migrated from Quicken, but I know that my
biggest headaches came from how Quicken did (or didn't) handle gains.
That said, gnucash includes a lot management tool that you can use to generate
gains transactions. It is far from perfect, however.
For example,
