[GNC] duplicate transactions exported

I am looking at the transactions exported from a GC (v5.0 Mac) book. It seems that there are a number of duplicate records in the exported file. Why would that be? Cheers, Brook ___ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org To update your s

OK, upgrading to GC v5.9.1 fixes the problem. Opening the same *.gnucash file and exporting yields only one line per split, as expected. Apparently, this is not a known issue for earlier versions, but there may still be problems. Cheers, Brook > On Oct 18, 2024, at 3:39 PM, Brook Milligan via

Thanks Ken, et. all. I managed to mess it up. I cannot access c:\ in the file explorer. I created the file exactly as above, including the * {font:...;} and filed it on my desktop. I decided to open it to verify it was correct and got the message "gtk-3.0.css already exists. Open anyway?"

Yeah! I got it. It took a while to find the right folder to put the file in, but found it using the hot-link on the "about" pop up in the open gnu cash app. Also, I think the spaces and separate lines made a difference. Mine looks like this now: /* Application wide font setting */* {  font: 20px

really odd! Here's what I'd suggest; 1. go in to your register 'assets:bank' 2. edit only 1 row 3. change the 'dollars' to some other number 4. re-export your data My expectation; two of those lines would change (one line for each side/split) The export file looks totally wrong. It

I found that using 5.0 and exporting txns created a 32 Mb file but in 5.9 only 12.8 Mb. A quick look didn't show any duplicated txns but I'll have a more thorough look later. Cheers David H. On Sat, 19 Oct 2024 at 08:05, Brook Milligan via gnucash-user < gnucash-user@gnucash.org> wrote: > OK,

I find that it happens when there is a difference between the dates that I entered the transaction and the clear date. Most of the time the transactions will only appear once but you have to pick the center column to have the program to pick the correct transaction. All the best Joseph Get Ou

I’m not sure I understand your answer. To be more clear, I have exported all the transactions from a book into a CSV file. That file has multiple lines that are exactly the same as each other. Somehow, GC is exporting lines into the file that are the same. Why should this happen? Does this m

And are the amounts for each matching transaction the opposite sign - i.e. 1 positive and 1 negative - double entry accounting has at least two splits for every transaction ? Cheers David H. On Sat, 19 Oct 2024 at 04:32, Brook Milligan via gnucash-user < gnucash-user@gnucash.org> wrote: > I’m no

That shouldn't be. The 'account' column should change for the split. Normally, a transaction would have 2-lines (2-splits). Can you send me an excerpt of those lines? ~mark petryk ~w:http://www.lorimarksolutions.com On 10/18/24 15:08, Brook Milligan via gnucash-user wrote: No, I mean exactly

No, I mean exactly identical lines across the entire set of fields in the export file. For example, one transaction ID has 12 lines in the original export file, which correspond to 3 identical copies of each of 4 different lines. In this case, there are 4 splits in the transaction, so the 4 di
