[GNC] Split transaction problem

[R Losey]

First, I'll echo what the others have said: we need more information.

Normally splits are pretty easy; the debit and credit columns should sum to
zero.

If I spend $100 at a department store, and $50 is clothing, $20 is
groceries, and $30 is car maintenance items, then I increase my credit card
balance by 100, and the splits go into Clothing, Groceries, and Auto
Maintenance.

So, I'm guessing that something more complicated is involved here -- how
about a split with different currencies? That may be a problem.

In any event, we certainly need more information.
