I?ve searched considerably, but if I missed it, I apologize.
Docs for QIF say the Q fi
Yes. In my GnuCash the original shares are removed in one transaction, and the
newly calculated amount (based on the split) is added in a second transaction.
In my Quicken, when I recorded a split, the additional shares (in this case, a
4 for 1 of APPL) were recorded.
But my original question
I appreciate the analysis of the code, and the confirmation of what I found
through experimentation. I had tried searching the code for the answer, but I
do not know C/C++ and I would not have been able to figure it out.
I’d be happy to write a paragraph documenting how a QIF entry for a
gnc_numeric_create is a C function implemented in
libgnucash/engine/gnc-numeric.cpp and made available to Scheme by SWIG which
changes its name to gnc-numeric-create. It takes two int64_t arguments,
numerator and denominator.
There's a general convention that public functions defined in Scheme
bug, maybe?
import-export/qif-imp/qif-to-gnc.scm says:
((stksplit)
(let* ((splitratio (n/ num-shares (gnc-numeric-create 10 1)))
(in-shares
(xaccAccountGetBalance near-acct))
(out-shares (n* in-shares splitratio)))
When I was doing a bunch of Quicken conversions using QIF files, what
happened was pretty much what you described here, I think. My original
shares were removed in one transaction, while the split amount was added
back. For example, 200 shares that needed at 2 for 1 resulted in a 200
share
So, the ratio * 10 does seem to be working. :man_shrugging:
For example, if it is a 4 for 1 split, 40
If it is a 1 for 10 split, 1

Yes. I missed adding that to the list I’ve tried.
In the full work minimal example below, the share balance ends up at 1.2

I’ve never used QIF for stock splits, but the obvious question is “Have you
tried Q4?” After all, 4/1 is numerically equal to 4 (a ratio reduced to a
single number).

I’ve searched considerably, but if I missed it, I apologize.
Docs for QIF say the Q field should contain the split ratio. I’ve tried various
options, but I’m not getting the expected results after import.
