I think we are mostly talking about removing errors in new transactions before they are initially committed, not removing old errors. If every sloppy keystroke or cat--track had to stay, we would never get anything done. David Carlson On Thu, Jun 6, 2019, 9:09 AM Stephen C. Camidge wrote

Were those transactions previously imported, or at least seen in a previous import file? OFX/QFX checks the file for duplicates and refuses to import the same transactions again. If they were seen but later lost, or changed because of an error, it is a challenge to re-import them. David Carlson
