I'm in the process of importing an 886 line CSV file of multi-split
transactions in GnuCash. I.e., each transaction includes the debit and
credit line item. The problem I'm seeing is with every paycheck entry which
is a split transaction composed of a gross salary (a credit to an income
account) and ten debit items. When I import the CSV, every paycheck split
entry shows up in red during the "Match Transactions" step. If I then
continue with the import, an "Imbalance-USD" account is created with all
eleven of these items. The resulting net balance is zero.

Here is an example of the CSV:

10/9/2014^Gross Salary^-2931.92^Income:Salary:Paycheck^
^Total Health - BCBS^32.90^Expenses:Medical:Health Insurance^
^Vision - Pre Tax^0.53^Expenses:Medical:Optical Insurance^
^Federal Payroll Taxes^682.21^Expenses:Taxes:Federal^
^FSA Total Health - BCBSNM^64.81^Liabilities:Loans:FSA 2014^
^State Payroll Taxes^107.85^Expenses:Taxes:State^
^Bought Vacation Buy^60.42^Liabilities:Loans:Vacation Buy^
^Dental Plan - Pre Tax^3.15^Expenses:Medical:Dental Insurance^
^Savings and Income Plan^175.92^Assets:Traditional IRA
Investments:Fidelity SNL 401(k)^
^Deposit In X Account^700.00^Assets:Taxable Investments:TD Ameritrade X^
^Direct Deposit Sandia^1104.13^Assets:Cash:SLFCU Checking^

Each of these accounts have been created and are correctly matched during
the "Match Import and GnuCash Accounts" step of the CSV import. Also, as
you can see the amounts do balance.

I don't understand why the transaction shows up in red during "Match
Transactions" step. The fact that it's red would suggest that the matching
GnuCash accounts are not found. If I double-click on the red lines and
select the proper account (exactly as it already appears in red), it turns
to green. Why it doesn't see that already is what I don't understand and
what I would like to fix.

Thank you.
