Rob - It is Import Map Editor. What you want to select is the 'Online' at the top where you will see three total choices - Bayesian (selected by default), Non-Bayesian and Online. Unfortunately you can only delete entries here in the Import Map Editor so find the one that is errant as mentioned below and delete it. Next time you import it, GNC will ask you to map the account which is the opportunity you want to take to wire it up correctly.
Hope this helps.

Subject: [GNC] OFX Import Mappings
Sometime ago, Vanguard replaced one of their Money Market funds with a new Money Market fund.
In GC, I created a new fund account to handle the change.
Once all the transfer transactions for the old fund account were complete,
I:
- Renamed the account: to move it to the bottom of any acct list as well as identify it as an inactive account
- Set the account as a placeholder: to prevent accidentally creating transactions
- Hid the account: so that I wouldn't have to look at it all the time.
However, now when I import an OFX file from Vanguard, income transactions for the new fund account are entered as being sourced from the renamed, placeholder account instead of the appropriate income account for the new fund.
I figured this had something to do with the Import Map Editor. I searched for the renamed account that GC was using and found no matches.
I even deleted all the mappings figuring I would just rebuild the account matches but for some reason, it keeps using the old account.
There must be some other location where GC has stored this association.
How do I resolve the mapping issue so that transactions get associated to the correct income account?
GnuCash: Flatpak v5.4.1
OS: Ubuntu 23.04
Thanks
