    Go into Tools / Memorized Payee List (MPL)
    • Locate this transaction entry.
    • Edit it.
    • Click the Split button, clear all split lines, click OK
    • In the Category field enter the desired single category
    • Make sure "Mark as cleared" does NOT have a checkmark
    • Consider putting a checkmark at option "Lock and leave this entry unchanged..."
    • Save the changes
    • Delete any duplicate MPL entries for this payee name.
    Future downloaded or manual transactions will use this entry.

    Hello @mbrobb,

    Thank you for reaching out to the Community about this.

    For Windows, you can check if the split is saved in your Memorized payee list.
    1. Go to Tools
    2. Memorized payee list
    3. Look for the payee causing the split issue. 
    If you see more than one line saved for that payee (including the split) you can remove the undesired line(s) from that list to prevent it from downloading that way in the future. Removing them from the list does not remove them from any transactions in your register.

    I hope this helps, and let us know if you have any additional questions!
