As a user, I want the ability to enter transactions with multiple splits. For example, if I have a mortgage payment, the money will come from one single account like Assets:Checking, and the destination accounts may be many, for example Expenses:Escrow, Expenses:Interest and Liabilities:Mortgage. It would be nice to enter this as one transaction instead of 3, which is the only to do it currently.
Feature Request
Change the Enter a Transaction page (/entry) so that split transactions can be entered. Have a look at GnuCash's official docs on splits transactions vs simple transactions.
The web form will need to change and be more dynamic-- possibly something like a big plus sign :heavy_plus_sign: that allows an additional part of the transaction to be included. This will mean changing the way the gnucash_helper.add_transaction function works or may necessitate a secondary function. This feature might push the limits of the stock WTForms setup / Jinja2 templates.
