Quicken incorrectly categorizing transactions as a transfer
A week or so ago, on the same day, there were two unrelated transactions in two different accounts. And, for the same amount. One was a credit, and one was a debit:
An ACH deposit was made from a payee to a Savings account for $100.
A payment was made to a payee for $100 using a credit card account.
The two payees are unrelated.
When Quicken downloaded these two accounts, it incorrectly assigned the categories as a transfer between the two accounts.
Trying to correct this made a confusing mess; when I changed the category of one, the other record disappeared completely - I think - and I had to make a manual entry for it.
Is there some setting in Quicken that controls whether or not I want Quicken to behave in this way? Thanks in advance for your help.

You can turn transfer detection off or subject it to your confirmation.
