Hello all: I feel I'm close to having a Quickbooks to GnuCash conversion process completed (I'll post the recipe if I can make it work all the way). Right now I have a python script that is reading IIF format and generating QIF (see attached files).
When I import the QIF into GnuCash (1.8.8 debian sarge), in the next druid page after QIF file selection, it says: The QIF file you have loaded appears to have transactions for just one account, but the file does not specify a name for that account. The default choice for the attached files is 'input'. The rest of the import proceeds without incidence. When it is finished I have a file with an 'input' account, when I would have thought I would have a '1st Bank Checking' account. Do I need to separate my big QIF file into separate files for all accounts that occur in the 'L' field? Or do I specify an specific account with a '!Account' record entry in the QIF? Or (most likely) have I missed some important aspect of QIF generation or GNUcash importing? I suspect either of the first two answers are as much work to implement in my python script, I'm just looking for a little direction from the people in the know.
