Using the ledger, wouldn't you have to know the correct account? 
Or try the search in each account ledger until you find it?

Here's what I did, for a short term hack.  I modified MyMoneyTransactionFilter::match() to look at the "number from" and "number to" fields and if they start with 'T' and are 19 characters long, compare them to the transaction.id() instead of the split.number(). I was then able to find my consistency check problems using Edit/Find transaction. I did this based on KMM 4.7.2 sources because I could not get the git master version to build on Windows last time I tried it (about a couple months ago). Jeff
