I believe it should be a bug for a while.

Actually as i posted before, Transfer transaction is one of few week points of iComptaMobile.
You keep it improving but still not perfect.
New transaction input windows should be more flexible as other normal transactions.
I.e.,
- should be able to name the transaction as we like,
- should be able to use "comment" column,
- should be able to use "Mean of payment" columns,
Those are not in the window but,
- why there is "category" input in Transfer transaction? which is useless for transfer.

Categories are in accounting, P/L items.
Transfer transction is to move between 2 different accounts, which is B/S items.

Another point to be improved is "People".
In the current iCompta setting, "People" is used as if it is one of "Categories.
It should be used as Matrix of "People" and "Categories".
I.e., when I select "Category A" 100%, then I should be able to select "People A" 100%.
It can be done manually, but press a few times more.

Overall, I really really recommend to use "Category", "Account, "People", "Transfer" just like normal accouting application.
- Category is Profit and Loss items
- Account is Balance Sheet items
- People is just like Subsidiary account
- Transfer is transfer between Accounts (nothing to do with Category)

I'm totally agree with all above.

Should be fixed in next major release.

Currently in iCompta, dedicated transfer button is allocated in order to input transfer transaction, but I think the best way to input transfer trasaction is from the normal input (+) window of one of the accounts which is used for transfer from or to.

I.e., after normal input window open, input, name/comment/date and amount to be filled-in and then select transfer from "Mean of payment".
Actually I prefer the independent transfer button here.
Then, instead of "Categories", it should be changed to "Accounts" and the appropriated counter account to be selected.

This looks like the opposite of "delete link" and something like "create link".
So, I believe it should be achievable.

The side product will be we can re-activate the link after we "delete link".

It is merely one of the ideas, but it is also true that many accounting applications use this methodology.
