I am a new GnuCash user. I have several problems when trying to import
an account tree from an accounting program (Mamut Datax) I have used
before. One of these problems can be described as follows.
I export the account structure from my MD system to a csv file. I then
use MS Excel to restructure the information to fit the input
requirements for a csv file that will define a GnuCash account tree.
During the import to GnuCash, I assign my MB Account Type field to the
Type field of GnuCash. Once imported, the account tree looks ok, except
that the Type field for each account is empty. It does not matter
whether I use the original US Type typology or the built-in Norwegian
Type typology. I understand that a subaccount cannot be assigned a Type
that is not compatible with the account above it in the tree, all the
way up to the five fundamental account types. And I make sure the
sequence of accounts in the csv file defines the hierarchy top-down
(should it matter). Please help me sort this out. Assigning account
Types manually after the import is possible, but I would rather solve
this in a more automatic manner.
