Hi,I think it'll be easier to explain with a little context. I have hundreds of paycheck entries in Quicken 2004 each of which is a split transaction that has (among other things) two transfers from a checking account to a retirement account: one for the employee's contribution and one for the employer's matching contribution. These are for the same amount, between the same accounts, with only the memo field different.
The importer seems to remove these Quicken account <-> Quicken account transfers from the split and put them into new separate GC transactions. That part is fine (actually I wish it wouldn't but the account balances are still correct). The Quicken account <-> Quicken category transfers remain in a GC split transaction. The problem is that one of the retirement transfers *also* stays in the GC split transaction. In other words, where we originally had two transfers from checking to retirement we now have three.
The problem disappears if the amounts are different. The memo field doesn't seem to change anything (in fact it gets attached to the wrong part of the split but I vaguely remember seeing that bug/feature already reported).
Anyway, I created a sample QIF file (attached) that demonstrates the behavior. I didn't see anything in bugzilla but there are an awful lot of importer bugs :-) and I may have missed it. I'm quite happy to file a bug report if people think this is a real and not a dupe. I'm most interested in a more immediate workaround if anybody has ideas: either on the Quicken end or via a patch to the importer or even just a pointer to where in the source I should look.
Thanks in advance, - Bill
