Re: Dealing with a large QIF file

I believe that the GnuCash QIF importer allows nearly arbitrary mapping from the incoming account tree to the resulting account tree during the import. Thus I would suggest taking the time to diagram (in a spreadsheet, perhaps) a desired path from the old tree to the new tree, defining certain

Re: Dealing with a large QIF file

Gnucash creates the accounts because you and the transactions used those accounts. Personally, I prefer having all that "clutter," since it represents what happened. Accounting is supposed to track what happened, after all. Two points: first, you can hide accounts in the Chart of Accounts,

Dealing with a large QIF file

Thanks . Yes one can import one at a time but this cheque ac from Quicken is huge and has references to other card accounts as categories within it. These accounts don't exist anymore and gnucash is trying to create them as part of the import. This is something I'd like to avoid. Hope this

Dealing with a large QIF file

Hi I'm importing a large QIF file(a current a/c)about 6000 entries. There are about a dozen other a/c's from Quicken, now closed, associated with this large file. When importing, Gnucash seems to want to create these defunct a/c's to 'balance the books'. I assume there isn't

Ticotexas, Under Tools there is a tool for closing books. I would advise making a copy of your accounts in case anything doesn’t balance properly. I’ve been caught out due to my own incompetence. It isn’t easy to undo closed books. — Colin Whyles > On 24 Dec 2017, at 10:40,

Sorting options for Credit Card account

I have a rather active credit card account (approximately 6 charges per day) that I'm trying to keep in sync with my bank. I enter the transactions as I see the receipts. I also mark the transaction in the Reconcile column from n to c when I see it has cleared my bank's website. I have the
