John,
Yes the description had to match the tranfer memo. To clarify.
In my transaction CSV I had 3 rows belonging to 1 transaction.
Description on all 3 rows: “Order 1234”
Receivables and deposit rows where identical in all fields (memo, transfer 
memo, description).
But the third row contained the transaction fee.
So I had in the transfer memo: “Order 1234; payment cost”. Then the importer 
failed to match it to the first 2 rows.
