In the meantime, if you're on a linux box or a mac and you're familiar
with linux commands, you can use the command line to strip the ofx file
from the offending lines using sed, for example on the mac:
cat stmt.qfx | sed -E "/<CARDNAME|MCC|<CARDNUM/d" > stmt_fixed.qfx
I'm not a sed guru, so maybe there's a better/more robust way to do it.
But this should give you a temporary solution?

Running gnucash with --debug shows what the issue is.
Removing the lines that contain the CARDNUM, CARDNAME and MCC elements
makes the file import correctly.
I'm not sure why ofxlib does not just ignore the unrecognized
elements, but that's the way it is.
Perhaps file a bug with libofx?

Hi David C,
It is all new transactions. If it is previously imported
transaction, it would give a error dialog saying no new transaction.
But for the given QFX, it just does nothing after you click okay to
import the file.
By the way, I am using the latest Mac OS on latest Gnucash version.
Should I reply all with email or just reply to the mailing list?
Best,
Peter

If your file already contains a transaction that was previously
imported with the same reference number, Gnucash does not import it
again.

Probably, but you do not explain what happens or doesn't happen when
you click on "Import OFX/QFX"? Are you able to see the filename and
select it? Is there an error message?

For personal account checking or credit card. It is the same user
flow, use the web connect for quicken 2018 or above download a qfx
file and everything works fine.
I would expect this biz credit to work too. They are from the same
institution and UI flow is the same.
Somehow the downloaded qfx won’t work. I attached the file in the
first email.
I used a diff checker to check personal qfx and biz credit card qfx.
Inside the file, keys are different.
Is it because how gnucash is parsing the file?
Thanks,
Peter
