Fran, If during the import GnuCash matches an imported transaction to an existing transaction depending on how close the match is it is marked for update, (U+C) checked or not to be imported, (C) checked in the import matcher window. Otherwise the A checkbox is checked and the transaction is marked for import. (These were previously U+R and R columns in the matcher).
When U+C is checked information in the matching record (amount and value of the matching split,imbalance, description, notes) is updated from the imported record and the matching record 's reconcile status is set as as cleared ('c') and the reconciliation date of the matched GnuCash transaction record is set to today if it's reconcile status is not reconciled (i.e. it is not 'y'). If C is checked in the matcher, the reconcile status of the matching transaction in GnuCash is set as 'c' and the reconcile date is set to today on import if the matching transaction is not reconciled (i.e. reconcile status is not 'y') and any online ID in the imported record is copied to the matched record when imported. If A is checked in the import matcher, the record is imported, the reconcile status is also set to 'c' and the reconcile date to today. The rationale is that in importing a rceord from the internal source which matches an existing record you have confirmed that the record exists both in your records and the banks records (you have not confirmed that the balance for the accounts match however with this reord included so it is not marked as reconciled).
