Go to
Accounts&Bills-> Categories&Payees-> Payees-> PreferredPayeeNames or
Banking-> AccountTools-> Categories&Payees-> Payees-> PreferredPayeeNames
which shows how downloaded names are translated into Payees.
Record the Payee Name Variation(s) shown for the wrong payee.
Delete the entries that correspond to the wrong payee.

Then click on GoToPayeeRulesManager. Excluded Payee Names
identifies words and phrases that should be ignored from the payee
field (e.g., check, deposit). Add each word or phrase that were
listed as a Payee Name Variation that you recorded.

While you are at it, it is usually a good idea to select
Tools-> Options-> OnlineServices-> ReplacePayeeNames....
[M05/6]Tools-> Settings-> OnlineServices-> ReplacePayeeNames....
[M07]Tools-> Settings-> OnlineServiceSettings-> ReplacePayeeNames....

You may want to set
Tools-> Options-> OnlineServices-> AddADescriptionToTheMemoField
or Tools-> Settings-> OnlineServices-> AddADescriptionToTheMemoField

Default statements don't categorize

or rather, written checks in statements are always assigned to one payee,
on-line transactions are always assigned to another.
Is there anyway to reset Money's memory of what gets assigned where?

Thanks,
