Splitting a Transaction into Multiple Transactions

The Multipart Split option in Account Allocations (ACA) allows you to split a single transaction into several new transactions, providing the total of these split transactions equals the original transaction value. The split transactions can include a mixture of debit and credit transactions.

The MULTI version of the Split form includes more fields. The form is divided into three sections:

• the bottom section lists the split transactions you have defined.
