Description Jason Thompson 2021-10-17 18:40:50 UTC 
SUMMARY
When importing transactions the account guessed by the program may be incorrect. Manually changing the account to the correct one in the ledger is causing the direction of the transfer to be flipped from 'from' to 'to'. If this unwanted flip is not noticed then the transaction is entered incorrectly.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Import transactions that include transfers from multiple accounts.
2. Change the transaction account to another account. (such as transfer from savings to transfer from checking)
3. Observe that 'From' was unexpectedly flip to 'To'

OBSERVED RESULT
'From' is flipped to 'To'

EXPECTED RESULT
The direction of the transfer is not touched.
