However, if say, you are dealing with a file including monetary values, for instance, a Buy or a Sell, you need to specify the checking-type account to use, and not everyone uses a brokerage account linked to the investment account. So, that is the purpose of that little window. In fact, you can enter anything you like there, and it will just show up as an unbalanced transaction and you can then enter what you require. That part was actually written in the very early days of the plugin, and I did not then wish to access KMM features inside the plugin. > Afterwards, I'm asked to choose which account my import is for.

If I give the stock a name, like say Apple, then you don't get that problem. The investment file does need to be imported into an investment account. KMM requires separation between the shares aspect and the money side. Possibly that will change in time, but don't hold your breath. > The imported file was the same as before (the corresponding settings can be > seen in the screenshot), the kMyMoney setup is simply creating a new > Investment > account together with a brokerage account in a new .kmy file. > Using USD for the relevant accounts does allow successful importing, whereas Euro does not.
