wish: multiple edit enable change to internal transfer

Internal xfer is not just a payment mode, this is why it is intentionally disabled in that dialog (and when you mass edit transaction).

The reason is that for now, when you switch to this mode, HB need a target account to create a sync opposite transaction, or may popup a window to let you pick a txn in the target account.

That's the behaviour when you edit a transaction from the the transaction dialog. And at assigment time or when you mass edit transaction, having a popup asking for such would an acount or to pick something with no context will be counfusing.

At the end those internal xfer should not be a paymode, this is a design I need to think about and change.

OK, I understand. What's the recommended way of importing transactions with transfers between accounts, then?

what you want to do already exists:
- go into the account you may have imported internal xfer
- menu tools/check internal xfer

sorry, my bad, this only check the existing internal xfer
what you would need is a process that detect possible internal xfer from account A and account B
an maybe popup you to assign if multiple match

or that the multiple edit or another menu let you transform normal txn to transfer

As I introduced a new txn type with 5.3 (see #1756681)

I will add a bottom section in multiple edit, so that you can change any txn to a transfern by selecting a target account.

I do think it will cover your usage, and probably others.

The bottom section in the edit popup works for me.

But I'm wondering where to find the state of the original wish: "Allow internal transfers in automatic assignments", or at least it could save me a lot of time what you said about HB asking the possible internal transfers after the import.

Thanks for your time!
