@Adrien,
Thanks, this seems like the best solution. It looks funny to leave the
unbalanced amounts in all 3 accounts (2 credit card and one parent
account), but reconciliation works and generates the correct payment
from the bank account.
Thanks again to all who responded!

I'm in the camp that would just use a single split transaction payment
and leave the accounts as-is, if not for the very least, that the bank
still treats them as separate accounts. They can change how they present
the statement on a whim. (as they have clearly already done once)
I always attempt to model the real world in my accounting as closely as
possible.
If it helps with reconciliation, you can put them under a placeholder
parent account, and opt to include sub-accounts during reconciliation.
Regards,
Adrien

I have two credit cards from the same bank, which were previously
handled completely separately and are therefor represented by separate
accounts in GnuCash.
Now the bank has consolidated the statements, but not completely.? There
is now a sinlge statement, but the charges and balance due are listed
and summed up separateky for each card.
However, the total due for both cards is now applied as a single charge
to my bank account. Because of the separate totals on the statement, it
is still convenient to reconcile the two credit card accounts separately.
However, this results in two separate charges to the GnuCash bank
account, which I then have to mentally add together to reconcile the
bank account.
This has led me to consider merging the two credit card accounts in
GnuCash.? How easy is this?? Will this really make things easier, or am
I better off sticking with the status quo?
Thanks in advance for any tips!
