[GNC] List of fields checked by importer when matching transactions

[Etienne Boeziek]

Perhaps related to your question.
I did notice as I was closing last quarter that in the GNU Cash latest version something seems to have changed with the importer matching.
I create my own CSV files in Python based on the export from suppliers/payments.
I had to change the Transfer memo field I believe, to match either the Memo field or the description field. Else transactions no longer matched. Before, I could have different texts there.
