Subject: Re: [GNC] foreign currency bank account import

There have been issues in the past with certain releases of GnuCash.  If you 
tell us which version of GnuCash you are using and your operating system you 
will get a better answer.

Hi -

I import a USD bank csv file where GBP is my base currency

All transactions are properly linked to a transfer account, some of these are 
USD some are GBP.

GNU Cash makes the transactions which are linked to a GBP transfer account a 
split transaction and tries to link to [consistently the same two] transfer 
accounts which I had not specified. I think it is attempting to do the FX 
conversion but it gets it the wrong way round. It also does not allow me to 
override and specify a [correct] non-USD transfer account.

If I manually enter a transaction as per my import file, it does not split the 
account and immediately asks me for the FX rate and I can get that and it 
converts it normally.

Is this a known issue with trying to import foreign currency bank accounts?

Thanks
