[GNC] Multi-currency split

[Fred Tydeman]

Is there a way to do that without knowing the USD cost of the groc.?
If so, in which account should the transaction be made?

I had already done it as two transactions before I asked this question.
Doing it that way, the USD groc. cost is 40.13 (not your 36.16).

The official USD to XCD conversion rate is 2.7
The credit card is using 2.688
