Re: [GNC] Question about OFX imports

I do see a good reason to do so, at least in my use case. I am imagining case where if I were to download good number of transfers transactions (I do so for last three months in a moving window fashion through CSV, QIF and OFX imports), I could end up needing to touch many other accounts,

The Check & Repair used to be slow (minutes); somewhere along the way, there was a major improvement; it is so fast (less than a second) on my network file with 6+ years of data that I can barely see the progress bar. So, it may be running; just very, very quickly. On Mon, May 13, 2024 at 9:41

I think there were issues too with reports on Linux with NVIDIA graphics though there is a workaround and if I'm not mistaken, now also a fix. Regards, Adrien On 5/12/24 6:03 PM, Paul Kroitor wrote: You're on a Linux platform so it won't directly matter, but be aware that the Windows 5.5

Also, you definitely would not want to double-import the same transaction, so there isn't a good reason to want to mock with the FITID. What *could* be useful (but in extremely rare cases) would be to force a re-import of the same transaction despite the fact that it's been imported previous,

Yes, I believe that if you delete the previously imported transaction, the new one will be imported. For your 2nd question, there isn't a way to remove or edit that FITID value without hacking either the OFX or your database... I don't think GC ever shows you the FITID of transactions (even

If it wasn’t many transactions cannot you just edit the cleared transactions? I’ m thinking Gnu won’t allow you to clear clear the nut ones as a feature to avoid duplicates. Alternatively, you might delete the cleared transactions and reimport. At least, that’s what I would do. > On May 13,

Now it is my turn to ask a question. My bank recently had an issue with the description text for a few transactions that resulted in the transactions being reposted with corrected descriptions. Now I am trying to import the corrected transactions but they do not appear in the OFX importer even

Thanks David, you are always a great help. I have created a backup copy of the data file and have no scheduled transactions or business features to worry about. I’ll (ahem) assume the check and repair has run. And will proceed with my upgrade. However, this old brain would like

Phyllis, I have noticed that it is important to select the best starting point for your purpose. I would also save the file before starting. If you start from an account rrgister and select check all, it only checks all the transactions in that register. To check the entire file, start from

[GNC] blank reports

Dear all, I had a problem of reports being blank after switching from Ubuntu to Linux Mint (to GC v5.6 thru Flatpak). I was able to see reports after switching the Nvidia driver from version 535 to version 470. I found this fix online, and it worked. But starting a few weeks ago reports were
