Just to add that the reconcile flag is sort of a moot point right now because it seems like there is a bug with the multi-split import where the flag is ignored and set to cleared for the first account on each transaction. See 796890 – CSV import of multi-split transactions marks reconciliation

Tom: I tested both files and it seems that it fails on the reconcile column for 2022. When I skip the reconcile column it works. 2022 has Y entries in that column while 2023 doesn't, and when I replace the 2022 Y entries with c it works. So it seems to be related to either the inability to import

Vincent, Good suggestions. I’ve attached 2 files, 3 transactions each, for 2022 and 2023. Instructions for importing them are in the documentation of the script, latest version also attached. 2022 still fails, 2023 still works. Create the accounts as needed; there are only a few. -- Tom

Ken, That’s a better theory than anything I’ve come up with so far. However, that would seem to get it backwards. Presumably, they might allow export of 2022 but not 2023. In my case, it was 2022 that failed. If they managed to do something like that, how might they do it? The only idea I

Tom -- I believe at the beginning of 2022, QuickBooks went from being a desktop and online software package - to being strictly/only online. With that transition, I believe they also gave a one-year period where you could export data. While this may be a stretch, I believe that they may have

So, the year isn’t the sticking point. If you look at the .xls files — one transaction from 2022 and one from 2023 — do you see a difference? If you move a 2023 transaction to 2022, does it import correctly, or fail? I’m guessing there’s a column missing in the 2022 xls file. -- Dave Reiser
