To follow up on this, try setting View > Transaction Journal View.
Now you will see all split detail for all transactions. And you'll
notice that what you thought was a duplicated transaction, indeed is a
single transaction. +1 to the list of things I don't like about 'Basic View'
Auto-Split View has this same quirk.

Now, to your specific case, I don't think it should involve 4 splits
unless the real-world transaction did.
If the bank shows one amount added to your account, and then two
amounts, one for each interest type, then enter it as 3 splits.
If they listed this as two separate interest payments entirely, then
record it that way as well. (two transactions, two splits each)
My advice is to always try to model what really happened if at all possible.

Adrien

Normanj,
What you are seeing is a normal artifact of GnuCash that appears when there
is more than one split line for the account in which you are viewing the
transaction. If you 'jump' to another account in the transaction, you will
see as many transactions as there are split lines for that account.
Usually you will only enter a single net amount on the asset side for the
sum of the incomes, then there would only be one transaction in the asset
register view.
