Default Re: Partition Accounts

I think you are asking about something Quicken calls subaccounts. Money
doesn't support them. They're basically cookie-jar-accounting. In
traditional accounting, an asset is an asset. Money tends towards the
traditional accounting model.

Default Partition Accounts

Is it possible to partition accounts? For example a typical computer can
have 3 physical drives of 10 GB each and then have say 5 logical drives each
have say 6 GB. I want to do the same thing with 3 savings accounts allocated
over 5 savings categories. Right now I have 5 seperate accounts and then a
6th account which is the negative of the sum of the 5. In this way my net
worth is not over stated since the same savings is listed twice. This works
but requires two sets of transactions. Does anyone know if this is possible
and if so how to set it up?
