Hi jmaney
Thank you for your post. Base on the screenshot and the information you've provided the account (6-0000) the header account and it place a default account 6-0100. The 6-0300 will not fall under 6-0100, if you want to group these account starting 6-0300, you'll need to change its account number. Change the account numbers after the account 6-0120 (Admin and Finance Group) to 6-0130, 6-0140,.....to 6-0190. It should look like the sample screenshot below:
Please let me know how you go with this.

Hi Princess_R
Thank you for your reply.
The outcome that we are after is the same as one of our other entity files, as per the attached screen shot....where all individual expense accounts sit directly under the 6-0000 Header, and only those Detail Accounts which need to be grouped are at a level below this (sitting under their header).
The second screen shot shows what the accounts looks like when we open them up, we don't have the option to change their number, and they don't have the 'detail account' option.
We had header accounts for all of these individual accounts, eg (Cleaning Header 6-0400) with multiple cleaning accounts nested below, but we have simplified our accounting processes and now only needed the one account for each expense, so no longer needed Header Accounts for all of these.
This issue was created when we deleted their header accounts....this automatically moved the 'Detail Account' to the highest level...now it doesn't give us the option to do anything with it.
As per the screen shot of the other Entity, we sucessfully deleted the Header Accounts in this MYOB file, with no issue.
Many thanks

Hi jmaney
Thank you for your reply. Could you please try to open your files in the browser version and change the number to see if it will work. If not, can you please send me a Private message with your serial number and screenshots of your chart of accounts.
