Verified feature request does not already exist?

I have searched and found no existing issue

💻

Would you like to implement this feature?

Pitch: what problem are you trying to solve?

Transfer payments that have different values (fees) cant be made to transfers

(i used some weird workaround to have it display properly, but if i didnt have to do it it would be awesome)

Describe your ideal solution to this problem

Select two payments, press "make transfer" and have it understand (with my example pic above) the 4 cents are some sort of fee and it not changing the 5 on the recieiving account

The fix is probably to make a split on the side that has a fee and split the transaction between fee and transferred funds. That way the transfer has matching amounts and still works as a regular transfer.
