Apache OFBiz is a pretty large project and the result of hundreds of
thousands of man-hours of effort done by lots of people with lots of
experience.
For any project like this I'd recommend that you keep your scope
extremely small, unless you're really planning to invest a lot of
time into this. In essence, if at first glance what you're trying
seems really easy then that's a good way to go as it will take a lot
more time that you might think to understand related parts of the
system and such.
The main thing for the chart of accounts is to understand all of the
related entities. Try searching all of the seed data files for
something like "glAccountId" to see all of the data related to the
GlAccount.
