It's unfortunate but successfully importing a lot of data often requires a fairly detailed knowledge of how GnuCash functions and how that differs from the program being imported from and when we need to do this is usually when our experience is minimal. I did it over 10 years ago now with several years of data coming from MYOB. I did it in 6 month blocks working backwards reconciling forward while using GnuCash for my day to day accounting. There was quite a bit of manual fixing of the imports involved. I did use some macros in Excel at the time to massage the data and then re-export it in CSV before importing into GnuCash. Hopefully this might get easier when the documentation is updated.
