If you read Derek's reply again, he stated that you must use numbers only; month names are not acceptable.

What date formats ARE supported by the GNC QIF import process? 29 December 2022 is unambiguous, but apparently unsupported by GNC.

And the angel said to them, “Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, who is Christ the Lord. And this will be a sign for you: you will find a baby wrapped in swaddling cloths and lying in a manger.”

Not particularly.
The issue is that 11/12 is ambiguous. Is it November 12 or December 11? Using a 2-digit year doesn't help. The best way is to ensure you have a day > 12 in the mix (and a year > 31). So using 12/29/2022 should give you a unique format.
You cannot use month names, only numbers.

I’m developing QIF files to import my old investments. I get asked every time to confirm the date format (the entire import process is a bit long imo). The QIF specification says I ought to be able to enter a date using `dd month year`; for example: 29 December 2022. However, this results in an error in GnuCash.

Is there a format I can use in the files that GnuCash will accurately autodetect the correct format?

Thanks.

Tim
