[GNC] Split Transactions Version 5.6

[Mark at Lorimark]

Hi Kevin,

(not an expert)

When you open the 'checking' register, and put in a transaction, you 
assign that transaction to another account.

Example:
   1. open 'checking'
   2. enter an item
   3. set the "Transfer" column to the proper account
     a. electricity
     b. phone
     c. school taxes

You NOW have a "split".   The "checking" account is on one side, the 
"other" account is on the other side.  That's a split!

If you want to make a 'multi-split' then there's a button in the 
register that you can hit to show the 'splits'.  When this view is 
showing, then you can take that one check and assign it to multiple 
other accounts to split it in multiple ways.

HTH
