1) Matching, and 2) VAT

[Ian Anderson-10]

Using OFX download, either MS Money or Quicken, my bank information is
divided into the name field and the memo field when imported into K2MM.
Some of my Bank downloads always have the same name, but the specific
differences are in the memo part, and I can't see how I can match them
into separate sub categories. Can you confirm that matching only occurs
on the name field?

I am also confused about VAT. In the handbook help, a VAT account is
mentioned in passing. Is this a separate account that you must set up
just to deal with VAT, and is therefore not a real bank account, but
just a place to record the split amounts and VAT details. (The way
Quicken 7 and maybe later versions dealt with VAT)?  

My VAT categories, 12.5% on income and expenses, are set up in my asset
account. Every time I import a new file, instead of automatically
splitting the new amount for a VAT payee, the program is taking the
previous instance of ledgered transaction splits for that payee, and
subtracting an unassigned amount which leaves the correct transaction
amount at the bottom. This correct transaction amount at the bottom is
the figure which should have been automatically split as a result of the
download! Is this a VAT set up problem?.

Hope you can help, matching and VAT management are crucial  
Kind regards Ian Anderson
