Victor, thanks for the reply. The data for the splits will be present in my company file moving forward, I will be entering it complete and in real time. I'm looking for workable solutions prior to migrating all of my companies to GNUCASH. And printing bill payment checks, with meaningful stubs is a must.
My level of programming expertise is spotty. I've messed around extensively with VBA doing work with Excel, cobbling together solutions for my own very specific accounting tasks. At the moment, if nobody has something much simpler to offer here... I see the most likely solution being to write an external VBA script that will go and grab the data right from my XML file itself and build the checks external to GNUCASH. To a man with a hammer... everything looks like a nail, I guess. I don't love it. It seems labor intensive and clunky. I had hoped for more from GNUCASH... Especially since the data points I need all seem to be present somewhere... Just not linked up accessibly. Hoping others might have a solution up their sleeves. Or that someone can definitively say there is NOT one. I hope that's not the case, but it would at least be a starting point, I suppose. On Thu, Feb 28, 2019 at 5:22 PM R.
