--- Comment #2 from Suresh PB <spillaip at gmail.com> ---
Are you asking to automatically assign the category for a new transaction to
the default category for the payee for that transactions?   That is how it
works now.  Is it not working for you?  
[Response] Yes, this is working fine.  Bank statements generally does not match
the payee, so this feature is not purposed most.

Are you asking to set the category for old transactions with missing categories
where the payee has a default category?  There are probably multiple ways to
filter the ledger to find those those transactions (at least within a single
account) and then edit them all to set the category.  I know that doesn't
currently work in master, but enabling editing multiple transactions is being
worked on.  
[Response] Facility to automatic assignment for "UNCATEGORIZED" transactions
with default is useful.  Most bank transactions contain random numbers along
with some standard text.  Using the standard text, I map the payee and
category.  Due  to its combination of standard text and dynamic number, import
does not facilitate automatic mapping.  When a menu option is provided, on
demand based on payee, default category can be assigned.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for clarifying.
