wish: auto-assign category from payee

[polc1410]

Feature request:

Could automatic assignments automatically assign a category based on payee, rather than assign a payee and category based on description?

At the current time If I create a transaction with the description: Gas Bill, I can tell HomeBank to automatically assign that to 'British Gas' as a Payee and to make the Category as Utility: Gas. That makes sense (I think!) but from my perspective it'd be more useful like this:

When my bank statement is imported as a QIF file for HomeBank to know that the payee 'British Gas' is mapped to Utility: Gas

Can this be added in a future release?

Thanks

I will see this for sure.

This seems like an essential feature to make moving to homebank easy.

+1 This is a feature I'd like to see in Homebank. (Seen in Microsoft Money)

Please see bug (wish) 844,576, Payee Defaults. If done could add use Payee Defaults check box on import. Get double duty from payee data!

In4.6 you will be able to:
- search a text into memo or payee with/without case sensitivity
- optionally (with checkbox) assign category, payee and paymode
