Yes, go into Accounting -> Chart of Accounts and then Edit for the account you would like to make a non-sub account. You will is a checkbox next to where is reads "Is sub account" and you simply uncheck that box.

Can I change an account from a sub-account to a non-sub-account?

Thank you for connecting with the Community, chucktebow. Yes, you can change an account from a sub-account to a non-sub-account. Here's how:

 

  1. Go to the Gear icon, then select Chart of Accounts.
  2. Locate the account you're trying to change.
  3. In the Action column, use the drop-down and click Edit.
  4. In the Account screen, uncheck "Is sub-account", as seen in the example below.
  5. Click Save and Close once finished.

 

Now, the accounts would no longer be linked. In your Chart of Accounts, it will be listed as an independent account. For more information on how to manage your accounts this article is very resourceful.

 

 

Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns. The Community and I will be here to assist you at any time. Have an awesome day!
