My guess was based on part of src/quotes/gnc-fq-helper.in: sub schemify_date { # return the date in epoch seconds. my ($datestr) = @_; my $date = ParseDate($datestr); my $result = UnixDate($date, "%s"); if($result !~ /^(\+|-)?\d+$/) { $result = "failed-conversion"; } return("$result"); } I don't know perl well, but when a bug in finance-quote 1.14 resulted in times like "16:000" for end-of-day quotes in the US using yahoo, gnucash refused to import the quote, even though 'gnc-fq-dump ...' with no -v flag suggested the quote retrieval was correct. Fixing the time parsing in f-q fixed the import. f-q 1.15 has fixed this problem. I have a vague recollection that gnucash can supply a default time, if none is supplied by f-q. If so, then my suggestion to you was probably off-base.
