Advice requested... The off-the-shelf v2 *ingest/importers/ofx.py* uses the *DTASOF* value of the *LEDGERBAL* section as the file date. However, I find that this date is consistently the date I downloaded the data from my bank, not the closing date of the period I asked for. So if, in April, I download transactions for January into one file, then download transactions for February into another, I get a name collision when running *bean-file* as *ofx.py* says each file has a max_date in April.
To change this behavior in my installation I've modified *ofx.py* to look for the *DTEND* value in the *BANKTRANLIST* section, which gives me the end of the period I queried my bank for. This has worked out very well for me. So: is this a bug in *ofx.py,* or am I misapplying the importers feature? Or is this a behavior that varies widely from bank to bank? Should I pack my changes into a pull request for others to use? Thanks in advance. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Beancount" group.
