I'm running KMM on Fedora 38 on a very recently compiled version of the 5.1 branch. This problem is not recent but now it's causing a problem I can't fix.
I have monthly "Sweep" interest deposits in my investment accounts.  
I use direct connect to import the OXF data into the investment  
account where the Sweep deposits show up as a Dividend Activity. I  
want to change it to Interest Income but after doing so, there is  
no option to save my changes. This has been going on for a while so  
I have just lived with it.
The problem I am having now is that a Sweep deposit on February 27  
was imported twice. I can not delete either transaction, the delete  
option is grayed out. There is no indication of why I can't delete  
it. This is true of all of the sweep transactions. I can delete all  
of the other transactions that I tested.
I can try to match the two transactions. When I do I get and error  
message "Cannot remove the transaction that references a closed  
account ... mymoneyfile.cpp:717". While messing around I also  
generated the matching error "Invalid transaction key..."I did not  
save those changes and  am back tot he first error.
This is the issue.  Somehow, the transaction is referring to a closed equity account.  This can happen with imported transactions, even though you could not manually create such a transaction.  You need to "show all accounts" and then re-open the referenced one.
Show all accounts revealed the hidden deleted Sweep in Investments /  
Equities tab. I re-opened it and my problems were solved. I'm not  
clear on the difference between the Equities tab and the Securities  
tab in the Investments area. Since I have 3 Sweeps entries in the  
Securities area, I did not expect to find any in the Equities area.
In the Investments View, the Securities tab lists all stock/bonds/mutual funds/... (Ennnnnn) that KMM knows about. The Equities tab shows all of those securities which are present in the selected Investment account. These are internally subaccounts of the Investment account. Yes, the terminology is confusing.
