For the work you're doing, it seems that importing transactions isn't benefiting you very much, as you still have to go through each one manually. I would just enter everything manually, and do regular balancing of the "bank account". I doubt if it can be automated in GnuCash - there isn't anythi

I don't think Michaels explanation is very clear, but he's right that you're not thinking of this right. Purchasing the widget is an asset transfer, so you DR inventory and CR what ever account sources the funds. That would be Accounts Payable if you're doing accrual accounting or a bank or lia
