Thanks Ashley !
You are correct, after looking at Kasem's idea, I think my original one is the simplest way
to handle COGS, inventory and the donations expense and it works without having to do GL entries.
We have a charity donations account already but have never donated product.
Got a call in to the accountant.
IIt would be nice to have the ability to restrict the payment accounts available based on login ID.
Time to send feature request.
