[Vtigercrm-developers] Relate to Account module on import

[Joe Bordes]

In the previous version of the import module this used to be really 
easy, we had a special_functions array that mapped comparisons to 
methods and you just had to override the one you wanted for each 
module/field.

I am not quite sure but I think the new import module in 5.4.0 just uses 
the field defined in vtiger_entityname table. You can try changing it there.

Let us know how it goes.
