How can i “Normalize” very unorganized and “lossy” QuickBooks XML Data with XSLT?
Question
My current assignment is to take QuickBooks accounting data in Excel format (a years worth, but I am currently working on perfecting only a month before I move to the rest), map it with a schema, export it into XML, and write a stylesheet that transforms that XML into "Normalized" data. I have attached a piece of the XML data I'm struggling with, my current stylesheet, and what I need it to output (i'm sort of close..). All blank tags can be ignored (they are just a result of the Excel import) and all headers containing 'Total' are not needed.
The QuickBooks Data that I've exported from Excel into XML is lengthy (for only 1 transaction and 1 month out of many transactions and a years worth of data):

My current output isn't wrapping every individual data set in a Transaction tag and it isn't appending a header (Number to SubTitle) on each data set either. I am really struggling with getting the preceding Number and SubNumber to appear with every set of Transaction data (ranging from the tags Type to Balance) and with my XPath and my selects, so any assistance is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Consider the Muenchian Method where you group by node name and text value and retrieve return non-empty text values. However, this may only work with the abbreviated 1 transaction you show and nodes are not in order as you desired:
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:exsl="http://exslt.org/common"
extension-element-prefixes="exsl">
<xsl:output indent="yes"/>
<xsl:strip-space elements="*"/>
<xsl:key name="node_key" match="Transaction/*" use="concat(name(.), text())" />
<xsl:template match="/MonthlyPandL">
<Transaction>
<xsl:apply-templates select="Transactions/Transaction/*[generate-id() =
generate-id(key('node_key', concat(name(.), text()))[1]) and text()!='']"/>
</Transaction>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="Transaction/*">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="name(.)='Header5' and position() < 5">
<Number><xsl:value-of select="substring-before(.,' ·')"/></Number>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:when test="name(.)='Header5' and position() > 5">
<Title><xsl:value-of select="substring-after(.,'· ')"/></Title>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:when test="name(.)='Header6' and position() < 5">
<SubNumber><xsl:value-of select="substring-before(.,' ·')"/></SubNumber>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:when test="name(.)='Header6' and position() > 5">
<SubTitle><xsl:value-of select="substring-after(.,'· ')"/></SubTitle>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:when test="name(.)='Type'">
<Type><xsl:value-of select="."/></Type>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:when test="name(.)='Date'">
<Date><xsl:value-of select="."/></Date>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:when test="name(.)='Name'">
<Name><xsl:value-of select="."/></Name>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:when test="name(.)='Split'">
<Split><xsl:value-of select="."/></Split>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:when test="name(.)='Amount'">
<Amount><xsl:value-of select="."/></Amount>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:when test="name(.)='Balance'">
<Balance><xsl:value-of select="."/></Balance>
</xsl:when>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Output
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Transaction>
<Number>68400</Number>
<SubNumber>68404</SubNumber>
