Chris, AFAIK the importer does not import the accounts separately from the transactions, it simply matches the quicken categories in the imported transactions to internal GnuCash accounts. The Account tree import is only for account trees exported from GnuCash in CSV format. You could generate the account tree in CSV from the exported quicken data by rearranging it in a spreadsheet (Excel or LibreOffice ) in the format GnuCash uses to export the Account tree and then import it. It may be easier to create the basic structure in the account tab and then import transactions to that. Tthe import account matching process has a new account button which will allow you to create any necessary accounts on the fly from the import matcher which means you could do the whole creation process in the matcher as well. Which is quicker and easier will depend on the complexity of your account structure. If your first import batch contains the majority of the accounts, then the mapping should remain in place for subsequent imports.
