Does it not trike you as insane that we have to go through these hoops just to bulk move transactions? Something that should be as simple as shift-select, right-click, move? I'm not sure how support for multi-select operations was never seriously looked at.

Sorry Michael, it was an oversight. I was not reading carefully. Geert pointed

Apologies for the noise.

I’ve twice now seen the advice to delete the account as a bulk move operation.

Yes, that does work.

However, this appears to be a parent account.

Can a parent account be safely deleted without affecting the sub accounts?

I guess I could try, just for kicks, (since I’m not the one needing to move 
transactions) but my initial suspicion is —that way lies a mess.

Did you read what I wrote? The process?

YES, you would want to first make this account NOT be the parent of its 
children. Once you have given them a different parent, they will no longer be 
the children of the account you want to delete.

Create a new placeholder account. Edit each child account so that this account 
is now its parent. THEN delete the account that had been the parent.
