I did that recently with a loan account mapped to a kbanking online account (paypal). On select the related account with right click I see an entry "update account" or similar which let me update this account from paypal. Is this menu entry not visible after mapping to an ofx account ?

Jack cannot change the settings of the mapping as you can do for normal accounts in the "Account Edit/Online Settings" tab. Since loan accounts use a different editor/wizard at this stage, the tab is not accessible. It has nothing to do with the actual update process.

That is a design problem which we need to fix but probably do not do it for 4.8 anymore.

I'm updating the version, as it is still a problem.  Note that it is not just the online settings which cannot be changed, or at least not easily.  For example (see bug closed as duplicate of this one) just to change the name of a liability account created when creating a loan, you have to go through the entire wizard, even though no other loan settings are being changed.  In addition, I do not believe it is possible to change the name of a scheduled transaction created as part of setting up a loan.

It is also not currently possible to change the hierarchy position of a loan account.

I confirm this (in version 5.2.1). I also add that it is not possible to change the immediate "next due date" of the scheduled transaction.
example: 
     today is August 6th 2025 and the scheduled transaction related to a loan has next due date = Sept 1st 2025.
     i want to set next due date = Aug 30th 2025 (and also generally all future schedules for this loan on 30th of each months except Feb.
     -> none of the four paths modifying a loan account (modify the interest rate, modify additional fees, modify other loan information, modify loan attributes) allow this change.

5.2.1 has a (maybe hidden) feature to do that:

- select the schedule you want to change
- open the context menu with the right mouse button
- hold down the shift key while you select Edit

i click on the scheduled transaction > mouse right-click > press and keep pressing Shift key > move the mouse to "Edit scheduled transaction" context menu item > nothing happens > stop pressing Shift key

if i left-click after having moved the mouse to  "Edit scheduled transaction", the load editing wizard starts. But this is not what you mean, do you?

Did you really only move the mouse over Edit or did you also click on it while holding down the Shift key?

I did both.
When i only move the mouse over Edit while pressing Shift, the mouse stays over "edit", almost nothing happens. Almost, because the underlined letter switches from the very first E to the very first I in "Edit scheduled transaction". The underlined letter is the one which may be used in relation with shortcuts activated by the Alt key. But i guess this small change has nothing to do with our topic, has it?

Would my configuration (OS, version of Qt etc...) be relevant in this matter?
I am working with the AppImage kmymoney-5.2-4600-linux-gcc-x86_64.AppImage downloaded yesterday 18:14, running on Debian bookworm (X11).

If you simply hold the mouse somewhere, you might see something change or pop-up to indicate what would happen if you click, but that thing does not happen until you do click.  In this case, you need to click while still holding down the Shift key.  Please confirm what happens when you do click Edit while holding down Shift.
Also, this is getting away from the original issue of this bug, so if we can't solve it soon, I'd rather see it as a separate bug.

ok, i have created a new bug: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=509029

There is a new topic in Discuss (https://discuss.kde.org/t/change-loan-account-opening-date/41180/1) with a need to adjust the opening date of the account.  Might it be possible/reasonable to split the current "Edit account" in the Accounts context menu into two - one to invoke the loan wizard, and a separate one to invoke the regular Account editor?
