I think many people have run into that problem, and some wrote some
python scripts that modify the bank FITID for example by adding part of
the date, so it becomes unique. It's a kludge of course, but it works.
You could look for such scripts on github for example, or write your own
from the available python based ofx libraries

Hello,
At some point earlier in the year I started receiving the attached
message when attempting to import an OFX from Citizens bank (the
message is "found 1 previously imported transactions, no new
transactions" -- the number always matches the number of transactions
i'm trying to import). These are transactions that have definitely not
been imported before. I've been manually entering all transactions for
a while now and that's getting pretty old.
This change seemed to coincide with a major change the bank made to
their website though that could very well be a coincidence.
If I create a new Gnucash file and import the OFX, it works just fine.
It just won't allow me to import to the file I've been using for the
past year or so. Also worth mentioning I'm still able to import OFX
files from other banks with no issue.
I deleted the account assignment through the import map editor but
that didn't work either. It did ask for a new account assignment when
importing but then I just received the same message described above.
This problem is usually because your bank is reusing FITID values. Those are
supposed to be unique to enable software reading the OFX to identify duplicate
transactions.
Regards,
John Ralls
