There is a bit of a learning curve with the process of importing files into GnuCash, and a major part of it is learning how GnuCash reacts to the particular text that the financial institution uses in the file. I have found that I need to treat files from different banks quite differently. One FI even reverses the signs of purchases vs payments compared to the rest of the world (even from other merchants using the same credit card servicer) in their OFX files.
OFX/QFX, and QIF files all use the generic importer for the bulk of the import process and CSV imports use a different process depending the purpose of the import. If you find that there are any quirks that appear to be wrong or strange come back here with specific questions.
