Create nodes and sub-kinds

Create Nodes and Sub kinds 

A node is a placeholder that contains sub-kinds. Nodes cannot have charges entered against them, but they are used in internal reporting for printing 'totals' of sub kinds. For example - you may want to split a kind into different elements eg Video Editing  _ Camera Operator, Pre Production, etc. each is a sub kind you enter costs against but they are bundled up as a total in reports.
