Can't create payee with transfer_acct

Hey @aon, sorry for the delay!

The docs don't explain this well, but you cannot directly create a transfer payee. Those are considered "internal" and need to be in sync with the list of accounts, otherwise weird things might happen.

When you create an account, a transfer payee is automatically created for that account. So you just need to create the account and that's it. It looks like you've already created that account and the transfer payee already exists:

  {
    id: '041e8dda-8a0e-4d75-975a-98e4080749d6',
    name: 'Tarjeta',
    category: null,
    transfer_acct: '86cf22d5-3ca1-434f-be14-489032bf3fea'
  }

Right, that makes sense. I'll have to pull the existing transfer payees and use them for the transactions, something similar to what you did on import-ynab4. Thanks!
