I'm importing an OFX file for a 401(k) account (retirement account at
work). The transactions are not reported on the date of the paycheck,
sometimes they are record close to a week later. When I import the
transactions and they match with the category in the paycheck entry in
my savings account, the date of the paycheck transaction in my savings
account is changed. This happens when they match automatically and
when I tighten the import date matching criteria and match them manually.
Is there any way to prevent this? The paycheck deposit date should not
be changed. It's screwing up that account.

This is another one I've also run into, in my case with checking and
credit card accounts. I prefer to keep my KMM accounts using
transaction date, but the imported settlement date or post date of the
bank always overrides the manually entered date. I think I put in a
wishlist about this, but I'm not sure. It makes sense if you are trying
to have your KMM account exactly match the institution's account, but
not everybody does that.
