File>Import>Import OFX/QFX…

Same place as last version.

And QFXDirectConnect seems to be in the same place: Actions>Online Actions>Get 
Transactions
But I can’t test that anymore since my banks have bailed on directconnect 
actions.

[GNC] OFX\QFX import

[rick1 via gnucash-user]

Just downloaded and installed Ver 5.0.

I do not see OFX/QFX import. Am I missing something? Surely this is temporary!

This is indeed a new issue on Windows:

There have been a few reports of this recently. Can you please open a bugreport

You can mention this as well in the report though I don't know if this is 
related.

Re: [GNC] ofx/qfx import to V3

[DaveC49]

John,

For your info OFX import is working fine on Linux Mint/Ubuntu 16.04. The
only problem I had was that the previous automatic matching to accounts
seemed to have had the data cleared in the swap over to the V3 user
preferences files. After one import it had reestablished most of the
matching  account matches and worked fine.

Re: [GNC] ofx/qfx import to V3

[Deken via gnucash-user]

 David,
Thanks!
I was able to get and install the April 28 build. 
(https://code.gnucash.org/builds/win32/maint/gnucash-3.0-2018-04-28-git-3.0-116-gb761b5a0d+.setup.exe)
 Avast AV doesn't like either the installer or the installed executable to 
begin with but satisfies itself that both are malware free.

This version does import a QFX file, however I did still see some issues:
- the "Select an OFX/QFX file to process" dialog box had no apparent means of 
browsing to the file, nor of entering any sort of path to the file.  It did 
open the last location I imported from. So, to test, I moved the current import 
to that location - no problem.
- the import process seemed to be less adept at matching transactions than it 
has been previously, though without going back and testing a previous version I 
can't be completely certain.  However, I've been using Gnucash and this feature 
in particular for a long time and I'm pretty sure.  (I just went to check how 
long by opening an old Gnucash archive - the "File/Open" dialog box also does 
not allow browsing to another directory or entry of a path) (opened the oldest 
gnucash file I have available.  I've been using it since at least 2007 and this 
is the first issue I've experienced - huge thank you to all that have made that 
possible!)

 - I believe that a couple of transactions that were matched were also 
duplicated in the register.  The file auto-saved so I can't readily back out 
the changes to confirm this...

Thank you again.

Deken

[GNC] ofx/qfx import to V3

[Deken via gnucash-user]

New computer, new install of GNUCASH and went with the latest available, v3.  
Went to import a 'qfx' file, then a different 'ofx' file and got a blank "List 
of downloaded transactions..." yet I was certain there should be transactions 
to enter.  Uninstalled v3, installed v2.6.19 and re-tried both imports.  Both 
worked.

The process doesn't appear to have changed.  Did I find some way to foul it up?

Thanks.
