David,
1st thanks for the reply.

When you ask for more information, I assume you are asking for OS and version?  
If so, Windows11 and at the time probably GNUCash 5.5, but currently 5.6.

I seem to have the issue with CSV import, more than ODX/QFX imports.  The 
original post, to which you replied, was on 3/11.  When I did the next CSV 
import on 4/11 it worked better.  Good thing most of my imports are OFX/QFX as 
it seems to work a lot better.  However, I would think the matching process 
would work the same, even using the same coding, regardless of the import type.

As for the Amazon splitting one order into 2 invoices, I understand that 
GNUCash couldn't match that and I didn't expect it to.  That is why I split my 
GNUCash entry into 2 entries, each matching one of the import values.  GNUCash 
still wouldn't match the 2 import values to the 2 GNUCash transactions.

Overall, the matching process works well for OFX/QFX most of the time with only 
occasional hiccups.  CVS imports are more problematic, but still save time.  I 
also agree, that some institutions matching are worse than others.

Thaks again for your time.


Thank You,

Gyle McCollam

Gyle,

Please provide more information.  Not only have the import functions changed 
over recent releases, but there is more than one type.

Even without that information, I am sure that GnuCash cannot figure out how 
Amazon split one transaction into two.  You would have to manually check those 
and not expect a match.  My experience with matching in the OFX type has never 
been perfect and I plan on taking extra time to manually match or even just 
delete duplicates later for some transactions.  Results with some banks or 
credit cards are worse than others.

Additional information.  Another credit card that can only import CSV, a 
fast-food establishment submits information the day after the actual 
transaction.  90% of the time it said there was no match, but on a few 
occasions, it actually did match the transaction.  Import information in 
preferences was not changed from the earlier submission.

BTW, it would be nice to have a reset to defaults on these preferences.


Thank You,

Subject: [GNC] Import matching

I tried importing credit card transactions.  There were 2 with no match 
information.  Turns out Amazon split the order to 2 different transactions.  I 
changed the transaction in the account to 1 of the amounts and added a 
transaction for the other amount.  They were both dated 02/09/2024.  The 
transactions on the credit card account were 02/13/2024.  When I tried double 
clicking on the transaction in the import window it said there were not 
matching transactions.  I checked the preferences and change the # of days to 
the attached information.  It still won't find these transactions.  I tried 
closing GC and then opened and tried to import them again, still no luck.  
Obviously, I'm missing something, what am I doing 
wrong?[cid:9657ec02-19b5-48f1-a2e9-0393f5c44ecf]
