Hi,
I'm in the process of writing an importer for a CSV obtained from a bank. While
I don't have a problem handling most of the transaction information, the file
also contains some extra data that I would like to keep as metadata (for the
relevant transactions). However, I can't seem to find a way to do this. Does
the importer framework from beancount.ingest allow to include metadata with
parsed transactions? For example, this csv data
"transaction id", date, amount, description, payee, "payee account number"
sepa-123, 26-11-2018, 100, "example transaction", "ACME GmbH", "333555777"
would result in something like
2018-11-19 * "ACME GmbH" "example transaction"
payee-account: "333555777"
Assets:MyBank:CurrentAccount -100 EUR
Expenses:Example
Also, could you explain to me which data is better represented as a tag, and
which as a link? I'm sure this should have popped up time and again, but I
couldn't find a satisfactory answer after looking through the documentation and
the mailing list archives.
Best wishes,
Alessandro
