You probably should post to alt.comp.software.financial.quickbooks. This is
the quicken newsgroup.
These are Income accounts-not expense accounts. Sett up Items to drive your
income to the right G/L accounts. I don't think you want to be having
multiple Items to do the allocation between the Partner and the General
business Account.
How about using the Class field instead containing which Partner made the
sale. At the end of the month do a general journal entry to allocate the
amount to the General business account class and g/l account. You might find
that with using classes you don't need the 3 G/L accounts for every single
account.
