Hi, I just checked the display_error message, and I think I get what you meant.   
    if (!is_account_balancesheet(get_post('retained_earnings_act')) || is_account_balancesheet(get_post('profit_loss_year_act')))
    {
        display_error(_("The Retained Earnings Account should be a Balance Account or the Profit and Loss Year Account should be an Expense Account (preferred the last one in the Expense Class)"));
        return false;
    }
This is something like, enter user id and password, if either 1 is wrong then should display error message "invalid user id or password" or "invalid user id and password"?
of course, is better to split the code to check each error.
if (!is_account_balancesheet(get_post('retained_earnings_act'))
        display_error(_("The Retained Earnings Account should be a Balance Account ))
if (is_account_balancesheet(get_post('profit_loss_year_act'))
               display_error(_("The Retained Earnings Account should be a Balance Account ))

Yes, is Credit income, and debit expenses.

the code is correct.
if (!is_account_balancesheet(get_post('retained_earnings_act')) || is_account_balancesheet(get_post('profit_loss_year_act')))
Display error if retained earning not a Balance sheet a/c OR profit & loss is a Balance sheet a/c

Profit & Loss is a company earned over a period of time (fiscal years),
Retained Earnings is the accumulated profits of the company since business started, minus any dividends distributed.
Profit & Loss is a temporary account like all revenue, expenses account, when you closing account, temporary account balance will transfer to permanent entries on balance sheet like retained Earnings, temporary account will set to zero in preparation for the new accounting period.
