How to edit/delete auto complete transaction

It sounds like there is some misunderstanding about the issue.

The benefit of auto complete is to have data filled in for you so that you
don't have to type it.  For example, in Quicken the term "memorized
transaction" (MT) is used.  The problem arises when you make an error when
creating the MT.  The consequence of that error is that whenever you want to
do it again you get the erroneous data which causes you to then have to do
typing that auto-complete intends to save you from doing.  Quicken allows
you to go and alter the MT so that in the future it enters what you want
without having to type it.  In that, auto complete resumes working as
intended.  Quicken also allows you to simply delete the MT which is often,
if not always, all you need to do because then when you subsequently enter
it correctly the problem is fixed.

It appears to me that GNUcash is missing this important capability.
