Well, yes, GnuCash knows the account number, but that's not what the bank returns in this case. Some banks choose - for whatever reason, I really can't think of a good one - to report a truncated version of the account number in the statements, and that's what GnuCash needs to catch if it wants to read the requested statements :-/ Regards Martin -- "Things are only impossible until they're not" Martin Preuss - http://www.aquamaniac.de/ AqBanking - http://www.aqbanking.de/ LibChipcard - http://www.libchipcard.de/ _______________________________________________ gnucash-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-devel
