There is.
The best way to get a handle on a format is to use the Export transaction
with the GnuCash export format selecting the multiline option and export
some multisplit transactions into a csv file and then examine it with a text
editor. The common transaction information is missing in the subsequent
lines (",,,etc") and only the the account split information will be present.
The GnuuCash export format also contains thing s like the account and transaction uuids which it isn't necessary to have present when importing data as the importer will map account names in the import records onto the internal GnuCash accounts the first time they are encountered in imported data and create a permanent mapping. A typical exported record looks like Date,Transaction ID,Number,Description,Notes,Commodity/Currency,Void Reason,Action,Memo,Full Account Name,Account Name,Amount With Sym,Amount Num.,Reconcile,Reconcile Date,Rate/Price 05/04/18,0d5021ad07e2493999398005679aeaa9,,BELVEDERE HOTEL Value Date: 28/03/2018,OFX ext. info: |Trans type:Generic debit,CURRENCY::AUD,,,BELVEDERE HOTEL Value Date: 28/03/2018,Assets:Current Assets:Checking Account,Checking Account,-$10.40,-10.40,c,,1.00 ,,,,,,,,,Expenses:Dining,Dining,$10.40,10.40,n,,1.00 the minimum fields you need to have in an imported record from memory are Date, Description,Account Name, Amount The second line with the " ,,,,,,,," is the second account for a 2 split transaction in this case and for >2 splits there will be an additional similar line for each split.
