Can we have the ability to move bank transactions from one bank account to another. For example a client accidently sets up their bank account twice. One has the feed going in but not visable and the other has had transactions added. Now the accounts are sorted the transactions all need to be consolidated into one account that has the feed. This isn't something that can be done as yet as it isn't transaction account re-coding, it's transaction account moving.

This is definitely a very common edit that is expected. Other accounting systems can do this quite easily!

I agree with other users, this feature would be a very useful to easily swap bank accounts for a transaction. Currently what a time waster and could be potentially be costing money if you are paying people on an hourly rate.

It would be useful to change bank accounts if a “spend money” is accidentally set up from the wrong bank account, rather than deleting and starting again. ie when setting up a spend money, there could be a dropdown for the bank account.

Sometimes you or a client accidentally post a transaction to the wrong bank account. Instead of deleting it and having to add it again to a correct account, it would be nice to to be able select a "change bank account" to have it automatically move to the proper account.

When a payment on an invoice is posted, there's no way to change the account the payment was made to. You need to redo and remove and then repost the payment. It would be nice to be able to edit the payment transaction and change the paid to account easily.

I think this would be a great time saving improvement

This is a MUST feature! So much time wasted when entries completed to the wrong bank account. Other programs can be easily changed but no ability in Xero

Ability to flick a spend item or manually entered bill/invoice payment to a different bank or card. When other users have paid off items using the wrong bank or card, it would be really useful not to have to re-do the entry - simply switch the bank or card designation. Older systems like Sage seemed to manage this....

This feature would make inputting bank transactions a lot more efficient. The original post for this idea showed that it is a highly requested update and would be beneficial for a lot of users.

This would be extremely beneficial and save a lot of time. I feel this should be a top priority as there has been many suggestions to make this happen for many years now.
