Possibly a bug in the qif importer ??? > "Interest" in quicken as well as gnucash is an expense but Fidelity > Ultra is an income account and the account with no name is an income Bad. 'Fidelity Ultra' should be an asset account of some kind, not an income account. You cannot use income/expense accounts to hold anything of value. Income/expense accounts are meant only to record income or expenses, for use in cash-flow type reports. I'm thinking that the qif importer should be changed to prevent user from ever mapping a QIF account to an income/expense account (since I don't think quicken even has the concept of income/expense, right?) > account as well. A sub account with a different type from the parent. > Is that allowed? sort-of. income/expense accounts can be children of each other, asset accounts can be children of other asset accounts, but one must never mix income/expense with assets. --linas -- pub 1024D/01045933 2001-02-01 Linas Vepstas (Labas!) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> PGP Key fingerprint = 8305 2521 6000 0B5E 8984 3F54 64A9 9A82 0104 5933 _______________________________________________ gnucash-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-devel
