1 Bank Entry - Multiple Invoices/Customers

[Dorel Ciornei]

First, I don't understand how several checks would show on your bank statement as a total only.
If my bank did that, it wouldn't be my bank for long.
But, I believe you could enter a split transaction that would show on one side the total taken out from your checking, and then on the other side would split to each bill you paid. 
I do this frequently when I buy in one transaction more than one item but they go in different expense categories.In my opinion the best is to have in GNU Cash account exactly what shows in your bank statement.That way you don't have to remember what you did a few months later if you have to look back at the transactions.
Cheers,Dorel

Hi Nick,

That would be one way to do it.

Alternatively you can also enter the payments directly to your bank account. They will show 
up as individual payments there instead of one check then. There's no rule that says the bank 
statement has to match your gnucash records line by line. As long as the balances and totals 
match up you're good.

In the end it mostly boils down to how you wish to track your finances.

Regards,

Geert
