Hello:

Software design requires balancing features and constraints. In the case of FX, one of the constraints is that the financial reporter at its heart is the same module used in the full Adagio Ledger and FX versions for QuickBooks, Simply Accounting and Microsoft Office accounting. The developers have to make certain that any new features (i.e. longer Description) are implemented in such a way that everything else continues to work. For instance, a change in the length of the GL description affects input screens and reports throughout most of Adagio's suite of 19 modules.

Having said that, Softrak has a history of solving problems for users once they have been identified.

In the meantime, I've looked at your earlier posting with your samples shown below (where 5500 is the parent Account).

5500 Office Administration
5510 Office Supplies
5520 Office Equipment
5530 Office Administration:Postage
5540 Telephones
5550 Office Administration:Copier

Could you shorten the sub-account descriptions? (i.e. "Office Supplies" becomes "Supplies") This works with accounts like "Postage". Or could you shorten the parent description to "Office Admin"?
