You'd be better off assigning accounts ("categories") from the import
matching dialog, not after the fact, because that's the only time the
bayesian matching learns.
If you do it after the fact, GC will never learn to assign accounts
based on your history. In my experience, it becomes very good at it, so
now I almost never have to correct an assigned transfer account (category).
