Re: [GNC] Matching multiple duplicates for the same amount
Version 5.3, downloaded from the main GnuCash website. OS=Windows 11 Pro (64 bit). File -> import -> import QIF. My bank offers either a defined date range, or since the last download. Obviously the latter option is less hassle for me, because I don't need to manually work out what I last downloaded. And even if I did remember the dates, I'd still have to overlap the last/first dates in case there entries that were added later in the day after the previous download, so the problem would still exist. Is that all the info you need? Rich On 11/02/2024 19:05:07, David Carlson wrote: Please provide more information.

[GNC] Matching multiple duplicates for the same amount
Hi, I wondered if I've found a bug, or am doing something wrong. I import QIFs to GNUCash, my bank gives me the option to 'download everything since the last download', however it often duplicates the last transactions from the previous download and the first ones from the new download.
