  Stan,

I see what you are saying. Practically I think I need to process the invoice 
payment twice, first part payment (80) to Accounts Receivable then another 
payment (20) to Assets: WHT. But I don't seem to have this ability in gnucash 
because when I process an invoice payment in the 'post to' box only has Assets: 
Accounts Receivable as an option in the pull down menu. Help!

I don't use the business features so don't know if this is your problem.

BUT -- it is always harder to enter a split transaction when starting from the "wrong" place. By wrong, in this case, I mean in the case of a one sided split, starting in an account other than the non-split side.

When you are processing an invoice payment (when entering that) CAN you split? << others using the business features need to jump in here and say one way or the other -- for example, if you received one check from a customer that was intended to cover two invoices, could you enter that, and did that involve "split"? >>

If the answer is yes, then what I suggest is that you learn how to enter a split transaction when you are starting from the "wrong place". Those of us who are keeping books for non-profits that sell "stuff" (fundraising) probably know how to do that since in entering the transaction involves "cash", "sales", "cost of goods sold", and "goods inventory" << split on BOTH sidesĀ  so there can be no "right" place to start >>
