It's really frustrating to have account codes move location on the balance sheet - to anyone using those reports to feed reporting. The fact that it "moves" location on the balance sheet but shows the balance as a positive figure still - means our reporting process can't distinguish between "Bank account" with a positive £6,000 balance and a "Bank account" with a negative £6,000 balance - as in either situation the default report would show it as positive - it's just moved location.
It also means the "cash balance" isn't actually true - it doesn't reflect the sum of the bank accounts.
