Re: [GNC] unable to import simple investment transaction from qif
Ar, Please reply to all so others can see and perhaps provide additional information. I have done that for you this time. I do not have an example but you can create one by exporting an existing transaction.

Re: [GNC] unable to import simple investment transaction from qif
If you are using a recent release of GnuCash, ie 4.something, the csv transaction import feature has been greatly improved and includes the ability to save and re-use settings . It definitely works to import investment transactions previously exported from GnuCash, so it should work with generic files as well, possibly with some massage. I don't know if the qif import process can handle investments even though Quicken can export them in that format it requires split transactions which qif importer seems to choke on.

[GNC] unable to import simple investment transaction from qif
Hi, I am trying to import avery simple transaction from qif: just 2 buy transaction for the same account, containing mutual fund The 'Assets:Investments:X' is gnu cash account tracking shares of , 'Asserts:Investments:' is a gnucash cash account. If I do not provide security symbol as below, the import fails when it requires to enter the security. !Account NAssets:Investments:X TInvst ^ !Type:Invst D07/16'2022 NBuy LAssets:Investments:Y Q34.107 T-77.58 ^ D07/15'2022 NBuy LAssets:Investments:Y Q7.638 T-37.7 ^ I provide security as Y, the import creates account Assets:Investments:X: that conflicts with 'Assets:Investments:X' 1. Does this feature works? If Yes are there usage examples. 2. I do not insist on using qif format, is it possible to use .csv for import, are there examples? 3. It seems that csv import requires a lot of manual selections to be made for every imported file, am I getting it right?
