Designing an Account Structure 

Your account structure should reflect your organization's structure and
the way in which you intend to use your system.  If your firm uses a
single computer system, an account structure similar to a corporate
organization chart (like the one in Figure 2-1 ) makes sense.  Your
computer system uses the same structure as your organization, because it
identifies and tracks the same kinds of information.

If your system belongs to a functional division of your firm, for
example, engineering or purchasing, your accounts might correspond to
projects or products.  If your firm is a service bureau, your system
might have an account for each customer.
