Group 
Total 

Gives the sum of all group and 
subgroup totals above it, up to the 
preceding group heading. The 
program displays the amount in the 
right column of the financial 
statement. 

You cannot process transactions to 
this account. 

Section 
Total 

Gives the sum of all accounts within 
the same section of the financial 
statement. It includes all the group 
totals. 

You cannot change the section name; 
the program assigns it. 

To ensure that related accounts are grouped together, and that 
the program prints the accounts in the right order on financial 
statements, Simply Accounting uses the following account 
numbering system. You cannot enter an account number outside 
this range. 

Asset accounts   

1000 to 1999 

Liability accounts 

2000 to 2999 

Equity accounts  

3000 to 3999 

Revenue accounts 

4000 to 4999 

Expense accounts  

5000 to 5999 

When you assign account numbers, leave gaps between them. 
(For example, leave a gap of 10 or 20 numbers.) If you later need 
to add an account in the same section, you can insert it between 
two related numbers. 

  

1.  In the Home window, choose the Accounts icon.  

2.  On the File menu, choose Create, then fill in the fields on the 

Account tab.
