Perhaps I can provide an example that helps.

  When I pay my mortgage each month I assign the total payment to 3
debit acounts accessed using the Split menu function.

  The standard three debits (increases) are: Expense -> Mortgage interest,
Expense -> Mortgage escrow, and Liability -> Mortgage principal.

  The total of these three amounts are offset by their total in the credit (decrease) to my checking account.

I think what you may be missing is in splits, there has to be a line for the current register's transaction in the split itself. So for example the above example would look something like this:

Checking account:                               $1000.00
Mortgage Interest:     $100.00
Mortgage escrow:      $300.00
Mortgage Principle;   $600.00


When you do the above, $1000.00 would appear in the checking account line from the split where you enter the amount for the checking account. You don't enter it directly, but in the splits. So you're 3 part split is actually a 4 part split. :)
