I avoid this problem by firts working at the unit cost in spreadsheet (if i am taking a long lists of itmes into the inventory) and then

Supper 1 invcoe

qty 10 x 25 = 100 - this will give me unit cost as 25 then
I add gl line crediting transport account with 50
so I book supplier 1 invoice @ 200

then
Suppler 2 account I debit transport cozt  @ 50/-

This way my unit cost is increased and transport cost becomes zero and I have booked both the suppliers with correct invoice amount and settle them at the agreed payment tems.
Is this what we are looking for ?

Best option for you is to create new company and import all details, except the transactions, in to the new company,

Thanks very much

I was just browsing for various Open source Accounting programs and like what I saw in FA. Great job ! I wish to know if ti is possible to have Customer/Vendor type or category in Accounts Receivable/Accounts Payable. For eg. in AR we have Trade receiveble/ Related Party Receivable / Staff Debtors etc. so on it is possible in some other systems I have previously used with different control account for each group / category but looking at FA it looks like it is not possible but a report gving sub-totals for each category both in AR + AP should not be very difficult i think. Any comments
