Hi Neill,

This is part of the data integrity check. It checks to make sure a payee name exists for all payees. It seems that somehow one of the payees was deleted in your account, but a transaction is still pointing to the id of the deleted payee. It most likely happened when two payees were merged.

When you fixed the error, the payee in question will have been regenerated and will have been given the name "Recovered Payee #XXX". If you do a search for that payee you should be able to see which transaction(s) it affected, and perhaps you will recall any actions you carried out on that transaction. If you can remember then please let me know so I can prevent it from happening again.

Ah great thanks for the info

Looks like it was related to me inputting an overpayment to a joint loan from my wife
I seem to recall seeing in payee view my wifes name in lower case (first letter - I probably typed it wrong and it created a second payee) so I may have deleted that payee (cant recall if i changed payee to the proper value first in the transaction)
