Bottom line is this - Quickbooks Online has SEVERE bugs and this one is particularly annoying.  Quickbooks is blind to suggesting matches that are straightforward and simple to match.

This issue should be correctable by providing a script that optimizes the data files, then re-scans unmatched or freshly imported transactions to transactions already on file.  

Is there such a feature or are we paying loads of money for software that is much less efficient than the previous desktop versions?
