[GNC] Template Transactions Behavior in Scheduled Transaction Editor

I would guess that the code for calculating the balancing amount as the 
sum of the other splits is part of the code that forces the transaction 
to be balanced before committing.

Since SXs don't have this rule, that code to sum the other splits never 
gets executed.
