Check the archives of this maillist around January 21. It was reported then that QIF imports are broken in release 5.10. The recommended work-around is to revert to release 5.9 or wait for release 5.11 On Mon, Feb 24, 2025 at 9:20 PM Brad Morrison wrote: > Hi Alex & GNUCash users, > > There se

The importer thinks it has seen the first line before and is telling you that it made a choice to not import it.  In that picture you can override the importer and tell it to either import as new (first box) or match to the existing entry (third box). The importer is giving you the option on t

The problem is absolutly mad! I have reduced it to just 2 transactions: Date,Payee,Memo,Amount,DebitAmount,DebitAccount,CreditAccount "2007-03-28","Billa","","5.1100","-5.1100","Girokonto","Essen" "2008-05-21","Billa","","7.1500","-7.1500","Girokonto","Essen" I can't see any difference! The 2nd

I am not sure why some transactions appear in red but about two percent of my imports turn red. I often don't need to do anything more than changing them to green . Not a big deal for me. On Mon, Feb 24, 2025, 1:08 PM Stephen M. Butler wrote: > The importer thinks it has seen the first line be

Re: [GNC] Import troubles

I recon because the matcher doesn't have enough confidence based on settings found in 'Edit' --> 'Preference' --> 'import'. From the visual format perspective it make sense to match it, but from the heuristic perspective it matches only 3 of 7 values absolutely so it may not be crossing the con

Re: [GNC] Import troubles

Alois, Have you tried clicking on the checkbox "Abgl" for the first transaction. If GnuCash has decided not to import it then this will override the internal decision making and force the import. Does the Essen account exist in the GnuCash account heirarchy? If you have attempted imports of the

Dear all, I’ve been using GNUcash quite a while. Things have been fine on v4.10.1. I noticed v5 yesterday and downloaded the latest stable v5.10 on a second machine. Import a QIF (about 200 transactions) and ran into a weird problem. Many (I haven’t counted) transactions were accepted successfu

Re: [GNC] Import troubles

The GnuCash import process is designed for manual operation of the matching step. An attempt to import 30,000 transactions is not likely to ever be automated. At least not with anywhere near an acceptable level of accuracy. I would review my plan and goals and modify them to be more doable. In

From what I can see, GNC it recognized it and ready to take the next step with it. You are at the window where it gives you an opportunity to select which transactions you want to post them into the register, which ones don't, and you elected first one not to be put into any register by having

Re: [GNC] Import troubles

As a side note- you have to teach the matcher how to match transaction as they come in by exposing it at least once. Suggestion is for you to take small sample set to import it first to train it and then import 30K or so all at once. But keep in mind that you will get a window that will still ha

If you need something to do while waiting for a response from someone who has better advice, I would try un-installing GnuCash, rebooting the computer and then re-instalingl it. You might tell us a little more highlights of your history such as what version you migrated from, are you doing anythin
