Ignore my "tried to test this" post. I think I have it figured out.. I'll 
repost question otherwise. Thanks for the help.

  Well I tried to test this via...- Creating an Exp Account named Unassigned 
Expenses- Then entered a test $99 transaction in the check register and 
assigned it to Unassigned Expenses.- I tried right clicking the $99 checking 
transaction but no option to Apply As Payment.
- I tried right clicking the $99 transaction in the Unassigned Expense account 
but no option to Apply As Payment.
Maybe I didn't do the test correctly.
Maybe importing a CSV file puts the items elsewhere in the system.

Thanks if you can give me some additional guidance.

 If those previously imported transactions are payments, then yes you can.

Simply right-click the imported transaction and choose ‘Apply as payment’. 
You’ll then get the Process Payment window where you can choose which 
bill/invoice to apply to.

Just make sure your dates in the registers and on invoices/bills reflects the 
real world transaction and not the date you happen to enter them in GnuCash or 
else down the road you’ll have a hard time tracing an error or when otherwise 
investigating something. You can certainly do the data entry out of order 
though. (such as importing payments and receipts before entering the 
bills/invoices they were for.)

If you are receiving or making pre-payments routinely and that is why you are 
using this order, consider marking each of those affected transactions as such 
using the same “Apply as payment” option. Then when you create and post the 
documents, ‘pay’ them by applying the pre-payments as needed. This would allow 
you to see in Vendor/Customer reports and aging reports (the new version) the 
tracking for the pre-payments rather than just having them floating around in 
your bank register waiting for you to post the bills/invoices and then 
assigning them as payments. How much time lag there is between the transaction 
dates from step 1 and step 2 would help guide you on if this is the right 
course.

Adrien
