Adding a new Detail Type to the Chart of Accounts is currently unavailable in QuickBooks Online. Let me explain why. Every account type has its specific detail type, and it works as designed by default. Unfortunately, there's no option to add a new Detail Type to your Chart of Accounts.
If you wish to have this option available here in QuickBooks, I can help you send feedback to our Product Development Team. This way, they will review your suggestions and will be taken into consideration.
Thank you for helping us improve QuickBooks! Let me know if you are still in need of assistance with your Chart of Accounts. I'd gladly lend a hand to you.
