You got some suggestions when you posted this before. Did you try them? I think your best solution -- maybe your only solution -- is to work in the General Journal. Auto-completion of new transactions references anything in the current view of the General Journal. Once a new transaction has been created by auto-completion, you can edit it just like any other transaction in the General Journal. All splits are visible and remain where they are even if you change the account in a split.(*) If you want older transactions to provide the source of auto-completion, once you have opened General Journal click View ยป Filter By, and be sure to tick the Save Filter box. (*) This is not necessarily true in the account registers. Suppose you are working in the register for Account A, and you see all splits because your view is Auto-Split or Transaction Journal, or because you have clicked the Split button for a particular transaction. At least one split in that transaction will reference account A, and it is said to "anchor" the transaction to Account A. If only one split in a particular transaction references Account A -- the usual case -- and you change Account A in that split to reference some other account, the transaction will disappear from Account A's register and appear in the other account's register.
