It depends on if you already have a digital record of the transactions or
not. If you do (e.g. a QIF, OFX, ...) then you can import them in, with
the caveats that if the bank made a mistake you will never notice it.
Otherwise, in my experience the best way to enter transactions is do them
as they come in. Entering a few transactions at a time is relatively
quick. I tend to do them one account at a time (e.g., put all my Amex
transactions together, then all my Visa transactions, etc).
There are also many keyboard shortcuts you can use to speed up entry.
E.g., if you want to enter Expenses:Auto:Fuel you can literally type: e x
: a : f <tab> and it will autofill for you. Leverage autofill to help.
In general you should never need to use the mouse to enter transactions
(once you have the correct account register opened).
Hope this helps!
Happy GnuCashing.
