[GNC] Process Payment and convenience fees

[Justin H Haynes]

It worked just fine.  From the Accounts Payable register, I edited the payment transaction and added two splits - 1 from the Liabilities:Credit Card account to pay the fee, and 1 to the Expenses:Fees.  In the reference field, I left all the “Payment” splits generated by GNUCash alone, and for the 2 I added, I put “Fee” in that field.  

So the payment amount in billing is correct, but I still have the fee recorded in the transaction.

It is probably a good idea not to change the payment split I would guess.

I have paid $600, so the payment correctly is applied to those two invoices, and $100 to the Accounts Payable account.  I can see the three transactions in Account payable.  Actually 3 splits - 1 for each of the amounts of the 2 invoices, and 1 for the remainder, then on the other side of the transaction the $600 from Liabilities:Credit Card.
