Thanks, interesting that deleting the “NULL” text and leaving it empty
allowed it to go through.
“but direct database manipulation may void your GnuCash warranty.”
I was thinking about direct upload to the postgres table (creating my
own guid and checking for duplication) but that doesn’t sound like a
good idea?

That would do it - the schema prohibits NULLs.
I don't believe it is possible to import securities, it is not an option
on the Import menu. Depending how many you have, you could consider:-
Learning to script AutoHotKey - https://www.autohotkey.com/
<https://www.autohotkey.com/> - which is
excellent for automating Windows applications.
Or (big stretch) have a look at PieCash - the securities table is called
"commodities" -
https://github.com/sdementen/piecash/blob/master/piecash/core/commodity.py
<https://github.com/sdementen/piecash/blob/master/piecash/core/commodity.py>
- but direct database manipulation may void your GnuCash warranty.
I reckon you will probably find it quicker to type them in yourself -
you can import price data from CSV once the securities themselves are
set up.
Hope this helps.
Regards
Geoff
