At the least, Debits are moved before Credits. But if there is some other 
sorting rules, I haven’t noticed.

I use auto-filled transactions extensively, but don’t see much issue with the 
eventual order save some Bills/Invoices which keep re-ordering a few line items 
for no apparent reason. If the placement in the account tree is used, then 
perhaps assigning account codes and sorting by them in the Accounts tab *might* 
get you something close to what you want.

I don’t think there is a way to force a refined order. (unless the account 
codes can be used for this)

*Maybe* since this is a recurring, duplicate, you could create a Scheduled 
Transaction and set the template as you want.

If the recurrance is not regular, just set it to as close to real life as 
possible, but set it to not be created automatically, *and* that you want to 
review it first. Then when it triggers, you can see if the split ordering 
matches your template.

Regards,
Adrien
