Need little help on setting CoA.  Understand that Xero does not have accounts hierarchy and reporting can be set to group/aggregate several accounts to show a sum of the several accounts in a new group name.  

 

But I'm having issues with Xero not allowing same accounts names for two different accounts.  I can understand this as there are no sub-accounts or hierarchy, but how then shall I solve the problem of having same accounts name as I categorize certain expenses and the categories are the same i.e..:

Maintenance Expense

   Interior

   Landscape

   Building

Site Enhancement Expense  

   Interior

   Landscape 

   Building

 

Is the only way to solve this by having a code as the first letter of the duplicate account names?  Say, like "M: Interior" and "SE: Interior"?  

 

Any advice from more experienced users would be very appreciated.  

 

Cheers,

Khuned
