When I did my import (over a decade ago, I believe), I had no problem with
transfers. Since I was importing all in one pass, there were no duplicates
created by transfers.
I believe the duplication problem you describe specifically arises when you opt
to import transaction data from individual
David T,
Does the QIF importer detect duplicates created by transfers within the
same import file? I seem to recall needing to separate accounts to
different files to detect them.

Alen,
What you’ve done with the Benefits section is better, but I still feel that any
mention of benefits of migration is misplaced here. Someone looking for ways to
migrate from Quicken presumably has already come to this conclusion.

Hi, David,
You are right. I've removed the benefits section but kept the fact about open
data standards. Apart from being a benefit (to me), it is also a consequence of
migration that may or may not be important for users.

cicko,
I also like what you’ve done. I will add some edits there.
Personally, I think the “Benefits” section is pointless; this page is about the
migration from Quicken—not why someone should use GnuCash. I would recommend
deleting it altogether, but I defer to you, since you created it.
You
cicko,
A very nice start.
I would add that those with large data files extending back several years
should consider:
1. not importing all of it.
2. if you want to import it all, break down your export QIF process to one
asset or liability account at a time and for limited time intervals such as
I have just copied the instructions from the FAQ page into a separate page on
the GnuCash wiki, dedicated to Quicken migration:

This is a general hint to anyone considering or performing an actual
migration from Quicken to GnuCash, to consult the kn
Me too. I closed off 2017 in Q and used bank balances etc., to start Gnucash on
1.1.2018.
No issues.

There is a menu selection in Quicken to export to a .QIF file.

I found it easier to just start again with GnuCash instead of importing data

I found it easier to just start again with GnuCash instead of importing data
that I did not require. You then have a nice new clean set of accounts.

You need to read the manual and understand how double entry bookkeeping
works. You do not really have hundreds of accounts that don't actually
exist. As you stated originally, you only have three bank accounts. All

The QDF format is one of the data formats that Quicken has used over the
years. It is proprietary and sufficiently encrypted to be impossible to
read with other programs. Before you abandon Quicken you need to use it to
open your file and export your data to QIF format which GnuCash can
import.
Edward -- I did the switch about 8 months ago and have not looked back.
I am pretty sure you can directly import your file from Quicken. I do not
remember exactly how I did it but I think QIF means quicken file so it
should work.
