Thank you for getting back to us here in the Community, @EBFinancials.
The Split feature will only give you the option to split a transaction into different accounts, not into different vendors.
To record your expenses, you can exclude the downloaded expense transaction, then manually enter each expense you've paid to your vendors one at a time.
Here's how to exclude your expense transaction:
1. On the left panel, click Banking.
2. Click on the box of the transaction you wish to exclude.
3. Click on the Batch actions drop-down, and select Exclude Selected.
Then, here are the steps to add an expense:
1. Click on the Plus (+) icon, and choose Expense.
2. Enter the Vendor name and fill in the necessary information.
3. Click Save and close.
4. Repeat steps 1-3 until you have created all the expenses for each vendor.
Once all done, your expenses would still show up when you reconcile your account.
