[GNC] Transactions imported from the file assigned to wrong account

[David Carlson]

According to
https://lists.gnucash.org/pipermail/gnucash-user/2018-April/076671.html for
releases 3.0 onward you can open the Tools> Import Map Editor search the
Online ID list for the incorrect match and delete it.  On the next import
GnuCash will ask for the correct match.
