I think it needs at least an option not to; my use case for parsing in textual order has transactions with dates relevant to me, interspersed with assertions at the bank's statement date. (It is mildly common for transactions to "cross", as it were, with the statement, so that the statement date comes after some transactions labelled with my dates that are not accounted for in that statement). Cheers, Christophe
