When importing qif from my bank (Canada Trust) there are two problems, both of which are shown by the sample below: !Type:Bank D01/29/01 MCheque N293 P T-1.00 ^ D01/28/01 MMortgage Payment NMTG P T-1.00 ^ D01/27/01 MBill Payment NBIL PSCHED PAYMENT #18924 THE BAY T-1.00 ^ The first problem has already been discussed with grib on #gnucash. The first two entries above have a blank payee line. Thus, when you get to the 'Match payees/memos to GnuCash accounts' screen in the import dialog, all such transactions are lumped together under a 'QIF payee/memo' entry of ''. The proper behavior when finding a blank payee line in this case would be to use the memo line so the transactions can be associated with the proper account. The second problem (shown in the third entry above) is that many transactions are listed in the qif with a transaction number. This means that the payee line changes from month to month which messes up the association between transaction and gnucash account. Perhaps the user could be allowed to specify a substring to use for the match. More generally, the user could specify a regex. There is probably no easy way to fix this in general. :( Keep up the good work. This program is already extremely useful. Can't wait to see what the future will bring. -- James (Jay) Treacy [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ gnucash-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.gnumatic.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-devel
