Does the template transaction in the Scheduled Transactions Editor show a split 
for Orphan-xxx or Imbalance-xxx? (where ’xxx’ is your home currency, USD by 
default)

If not, then it isn’t out of balance. It will show the balancing splits.

You should see a credit to liabilities::escrow then a debit to the 
expenses::taxes and expenses::insurance splits as well as a credit to the loan 
liability account. (mortgage)

When you make your payment, it will be a credit to your source account 
(cash/checking/savings, etc.) and a debit to the mortgage account and a debit 
to liabilities::escrow. (the credit to the source, an asset, will reduce it, 
and a debit to the liability (mortgage &) escrow, will reduce them as well)

I use :: to denote you may have intervening account hierarchy.

Adrien
