yep. i'm doing that. i have a litte 12 transaction csv i keep playing with. 6
are the ones it barfs at. 6 are accepted.
i move fields around and whatnot. haven't come up with an answer yet.
tested the proposition that it is just discerning existing transactions: no,
that's not it. I just offered it half a dozen existing trans and it was willing
to take them.
one of my tests I simply moved the amount column down one row. then put the
bottom figure at the top. making 6 new transactions with all the old data
fields. It accepted all except one. was willing to accept (i didn't go
through with it).
did it again with amount+desc this time. same thing. and so on.. playing like
that.
put them back where they came from: bang: rejects...It's a puzzle.

You can make a copy of your file and test the import there making various
changes to see what happens.

So certain? That's it? It claims this is an existing transaction already in
the books?
What does it mean 'force them to be loaded'? It means I want the transaction
entered?
If it makes my query any clearer I am talking of transactions taken directly
from bank statements electronically and verified. So i am 100% confident every
one is unique.
You seem to be saying gnucash will barf at apparent duplicate imports of a
transaction. I wondered about that. That's good. If I'm reading this right
then that's what we have here - the mechanism for identifying possible
duplicates?
That's what it is all about?
And if I insist on 'load' then it will enter them?
hey.. thanks for the reply... :)

The importer thinks it sees them already. So if you want to force them to be
loaded, then click the box in the first column.

I have six transactions that gnucash will not import. It red highlights and
says 'do not import; no action selected'
hundreds of such transactions have been imported without any action selections
at all. I give, of course, date, amount,description, destination account. All
works fine. Except for these six.
Any clues? Thins I could/should do?
