How to Add a New Account Type with a Four-Level Hierarchy to Charts of Accounts in Odoo 17 Accounting?

Question

In Odoo 17 Accounting, I'm looking for guidance on how to incorporate a new account type into the existing charts of accounts, while also extending the hierarchy to four levels. Currently, the system only supports up to two levels by default. Specifically, I need instructions on customizing the chart of accounts to accommodate additional account types with a hierarchical structure spanning four levels. Could someone provide a clear walkthrough or steps for accomplishing this task within Odoo 17?

Thanks!

Thank you for your solution.
But my requirements are different from solution you provided.
My requirement is when we try to create a new account in the charts of account in the account type drop-down there should be the type in a hierarchy up to level 4.
Something like this: -
* Asset *
* Current Asset *   :  * Cash and Cash Equivalents * * Bank Accounts *     But by default it only provides level up to 2 like this: -
* Asset *
* Current Asset *   :    Is there any way to do this.

Thanks!
