That's a good callout. Account numbers, transactions, and current balances could be used as a way to prove identity when calling the institution as well. I didn't consider this initially. Thanks for the callout. On Thursday, November 28, 2024 at 10:33:08 PM UTC-5 Red S wrote: > It's more than

Hi Eric, Applying this patch should help. It uses XIRR from this library . It certainly resolves your test case, and works on several accounts of mine (but not all). However, I’ve barely tested it, and there are cases where it might not wo

I see, it's more of a comfortability level thing. I can understand why that would make someone a little apprehensive. I haven't played around with local models before, but I should check them out – Thanks for the suggestion. I've got everything virtualized on a HP ProLiant DL360p Gen8, so no g

It's more than just a comfort thing IMHO: I'd be concerned about putting my account numbers, transactions, and current positions and balances out there, and open myself up to phishing attacks. I'd personally highly caution anyone against feeding their statements to GPT online for the same reaso

I was actually thinking about making an importer that sends transaction statements to chatgpt and extracts the information in beancount format. It's amazing at parsing pdfs and csv files, and unlike institution specific importers you'd never have to worry about the institution making format cha
