    Please explain your process, what you want to achieve with split transactions, what attributes are required and how you would like to contribute: if you e.g. get a lot of partial payments one would consider slightly different issues than if you e.g. run a online shop and have to split your payments into shipping costs and net values.

      Hi,

      A split transaction is useful to:
      - Separate the sales tax from a total transaction, or the shipping costs.
      One debit, multiple credit transaction, or one credit,multiple debit
      transactions.
      - Invoice positions can be linked to an invoice transaction to the
      creditors account
      - in a more personal accounting, a paid receipt can be split into
      groceries, liquors, household needs.

      I am professional Java developer. I have had a course in accounting
      covering double accounting and balance sheet creation, but it is a decade
      ago and was in German, I haven't read your code yet.

      Cheers,
      Kai

        Gnuaccounting supports splitting e.g. a payment into the net value and (multiple) vat rates (with different contra accounts) and into net and the single standard vat rate with "Standardbuchung". Thats what I needed. Feel free to have a look at the software and/or the (also german) manual.

        I'm still missing your business process and requirement. Please feel free to tell me what you need the feature for.

      OK, I currently do this with multiple entries with the same reference, but I agree having it as one transaction would be elegant (since a transaction anyway has 0..n entries) and more user friedly as well
