Frank, I think it would still be proper to use a current asset account.
Should something interrupt the transit, the funds would not come out of
the original asset account.
But really, this now sounds more like a situation of simple clearing.
I'm not sure the second date is necessary any more than if you write a
physical check to a friend and they don't cash it for a week.(or longer)
I suppose one could always include this clearing date in the Notes or
Memo if it was thought to be important.
Regards,
Adrien

Thanks Adrien and Stephen.
Both your solutions are good work arounds, sounds like the short answer is
it can't be done the nice way preserving data. The result will be to
manually delete one of the import transactions and the new duplicate
created won't have the date that matches one of the 2 banks for correctness
purposes.
:
it is possible to keep both dates. The more common case is: you send
money from account A to accout B. It disappears from accout A today and
reappears on account B after the weekend. The proper solution is to use
a "very current" asset account "money in transfer" between the two real
accounts.
In your case you can use a corresponded very current liability account.
But I do not know the right english term of it.
Just create the account and reassign the splits from your Imbalance-USD
to the newly created account.
