As Lance stated, you can always set transactions to "Bucket Optional" in the context menu for the transaction list. > The only other thing I could think of trying, would be to delete the > credits after the direct connect on my credit card account and use the > transfer option from my checking to mimic the credit to my credit card > account.

What I tend to do is to create a transfer when I make a payment and then when I use the direct connect download to import transactions, MoneyWell matches these up and merges the information properly. This way I get the connected transfer and I don't have to manually delete imported transactions.
