You are perhaps confusing file type with data withing that file. You say
that you downloaded the file asking it be delivered for "Quicken 2018
and above" What is your reasoning to expect THAT (data intended for some
sort of bookkeeping that is NOT double entry bookkeeping) to be correct
data for gnucash (data intended for standard double entry bookkeeping)
I have a suspicion why it is not working. Maybe it is because a combined qfx
file. BofA organized their business account in a group fashion. They made a
parent account and each credit card holder as a child account. Their personal
account doesn’t follow this parent-child account structure.
Well a credit card "account" of that sort is standard for business
credit cards (a master card number, perhaps not used to charge anything,
and some number of individual child cards which are. That way whoever is
doing the record keeping can see what is being charged on each card but
pays to the master number. That is NOT just for business. Thus in my own
case, I have a card (and it's the master number) and my wife has a card
with a different number but actually the same account. When I get a
statement, the charges for both card numbers are listed separately but
the total, and payments. etc. just on the master account number.
Since I have not yet switched that to online, I have no idea what the
file would look like if I asked MasterCard to provide a file instead of
paper statement.
