Why am I prompted to create an account when starting some activities?

ContactsLaw uses controlled accounts to make automatic decisions about which accounts to post special types of transactions (such as debtor receipts or bills) to. Since these controlled accounts are used as the basis for certain types of reports, statistics and listings within the program, the activity cannot function properly without them.
 
When starting an activity that requires a particular controlled account, it will either prompt for the creation of that account, or fail with an error message. Be advised as to the requirements of each accounting activity before making it available to members.
