Just out of curiosity is the word "Discover" somehow a protected word, function, directive or key word in the Gnucash code? Everytime I import my Discover Card qif it asks me for the date format. No other qif import does. On Mon, Apr 8, 2024 at 4:38 AM Joseph Keithley wrote: > Both version

That's not always the case. Some brokerages (Schwab, for example) pull the money into an account directly, from which shares are purchased at some later date. It's essentially a cash based asset account, but it doesn't appear separately to the user. One way to handle this is to place these
