A bookkeeper cannot change transaction types (expense vs credit card expense) for credit card transactions in QuickBooks Online, causing incorrect liability reporting.

QuickBooks Online does not allow users to directly edit the transaction type field for imported credit card transactions, and the mapping between bank feeds and transaction types is opaque.
