[GNC] Assigning payment inside a split

[Geert Janssens]

I believe it's not possible to assign specific splits to as a payment to a 
bill. You can only assign complete transactions and from that point on GnuCash 
will manage the Accounts Payable part of that transaction. That does 
effectively mean that if your payment transaction has more than one split in 
an AP account, they may be reset by GnuCash.

That's proper to how the business features in gnucash work - anything in AP or 
AR is managed by code.

Regards,

Geert
