            Bug ID: 310731
          Severity: normal
           Version: 4.6.3
          Priority: NOR
          Assignee: kmymoney-devel at kde.org
           Summary: KMyMoney does not allow use of Equity accounts (with
                    "Show Equity Accounts" option checked)
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: FreeBSD
          Reporter: blackdragon at highveldmail.co.za
          Hardware: FreeBSD Ports
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
         Component: general
           Product: kmymoney4

With the option "Show Equity Accounts" option checked it is possible to see and
create equity accounts in the "Accounts" view however those equity accounts do
not appear in the "Ledgers" view and transactions cannot be moved to an equity
account (as the equity account does not appear in the list shown).  

Motivation for using an equity account: reserves (such as for clothing
expenditure) can be used to smooth the income and expenses statement for such
items however the corresponding counter (double entry) account is of type
equity.  

I would like KMyMoney to handle reserving automatically but currently I'll
happily do it myself and use a liability account as the counter account however
strickly it should be an equity account.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Enable "Show Equity Acccounts" option
2. Create an equity account in the "Accounts" view
3. Attempt to enter a transaction relating to the created equity account, or
view the account in the "Ledger" view
Actual Results:  
The equity account is not visible from ledger and as a category

Expected Results:  
The equity account is visible from ledger and as a category
