Version: unspecified (using KDE 4.4.3) OS: Linux I do it in two parts as the payee assignment ends up in two different scenarios. Maybe you will put part 1 and part 2 together. Part 1: A payee already exists and former transactions with a category happened on this payee. An other payee with a similar name is treated exactly the same way, what is totally wrong. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Payee PAYPAL => the first transaction via aqbanking was assigned to a category Today a new payee: Payee PAYSAGE (this is a customers company name) via aqbanking => Is handled as if the customer name was PAYPAL. Transaction is assigned a wrong category (the one PAYPAL had) Actual Results: Wrong category assigned Expected Results: See that the customer is new; don't assign a category Another one: Old customer "KIRSTE" new customer "Kirsten" is treated like the old one.
What version of KMyMoney are you using? Where did you install it from?
I'm using 3.98.1 and downloaded it from http://kmymoney2.sourceforge.net/index2.html Sorry that I missed that. Andreas
What are the option settings on PAYPAL on the "Matching" tab of the payee? Does the transaction of PAYSAGE show that name or is it attached to PAYPAL? The "Kirsten/KIRSTE" case is by design. This is to allow matching the payee name with any addition provided by some stores. This might not happen with HBCI but is common using QIF or OFX. You can avoid it by adding "^KIRSTE$" to the list of matching names.
The options for Paypal are "Nach Zahlungsempfänger zuordnen" (the middle one, don't know the english text) as are all payees automatically assigned to. The transaction PAYSAGE is treated as if it was a PAYPAL transaction. The name shown was correct but the category assigned was wrong. Paypal is assigned to transactions comming from a (manual) bank account (as Paypal does not provide an online account) matching my normal online bank account. Paysage is a payment from a customer comming to my normal online bank account. If it's still unclear I can only give more details in German ;-( To touch every single payee to avoid the Kirsten/Kirste case is not possible. I would have to touch hundreds of payees. And all new payees every day (between 10 and 20 per day) , too. And there are other cases like Kaufhof (expense category) is treated the same as Hof (income) and so on and so on. I'm working with HBCI. Hope that helps. I'm happy to provide more details. The only thing I'd like to have is a simple way to stop the automatism to assign transactions to customers. Thanks for your help.

Sorry for writing a 2nd mail. I recognised an other case. It happens that customer names are misinterpreted and they are displayed wrongly, too (like Meyer is correkt but Meiner is displayed). And often the payee names are not recognized at all. Even if the text is more or less the same as with other transactions where the names are read correctly. I'll post you an example for the first case here, as soon as it happens again.

Did it happen again in the meantime?
