Verified issue does not already exist?

I have searched and found no existing issue

What happened?

When importing my budget from ynab some split transactions were ´broken´.

I have a few split transactions that go half to a category and half to a ´lending´ account in my tracking accounts.
However, this split transaction will not be marked as a transfer.

YNAB:

The transaction can be found in the tracking account on actual, but editing this will create a new transaction in the original account.

👋 Apologies for the super slow response.

Would you mind sharing an example YNAB file showcasing the issue? I'm afraid we won't be able to help without it.

Would be definitely nice to do this, but without an example budget this is very difficult to do. Closing this off as abandoned. Please open a new issue and provide example budget (or better yet: a working PR) to see this get done.
