Hello, The course of the problem is that I tried to delete a specific mapping for a specific account in the Import Map Editor and instead it would delete the entire account with all mappings (that is, in the Map Editor, not the account itself). That looks like a bug.
Anyway, it doesn't seem possible to retrain the system by new importing (and setting values) i.e. identical transactions are not recognized on subsequent imports. I assume it's because the account is no longer being mapped to on import (and is not visible anymore in the Map Editor as mentioned above). Hence my original question on how to re-instate the account in the datafile / Map Editor for mapping if possible at all?
