There are times when you have payments to someone but for diferent reasons.
For example:
Buy food: pay 10EUR to "ABC Market".
Account: Payments::Food::ABC Market
Buy furniture: pay 65EUR to "ABC Market"
Account: Payments::House::ABC Market
As you can see, there's two diferent accounts because the payments category are different, but the payee is the same.
So, if any day i want a report to now my expenses on one payee, i would like to select "ABC Market" (the first one, i.e.) and view all the payments due to them.
If "ABC Market" from Food is linked to "ABC Market" from House, the software can do the connection and aggregate the data.
Or maybe there's a better way to do what i want and you could show some light about it.
P.D: I'm a user from Microsoft Money and i'm trying to accomodate to GnuCash, specially in reporting.
