Re: [GNC] How to Manually Match transactions

Thanks for the great suggestions everyone. I tried the idea of changing from A to C during import and then looking for a match but no matches were present to select from in the matcher dialog. I even manually changed the date of the transaction in account A to match the date of account B before

Just copy your GnuCash data files, backup files and log files from from their current location in Documents to the folder in Dropbox and then use the file open dialog in GnuCash to open the files in their new location. All should be sweet. David Cousens - David Cousens -- Sent from:

My Gnucash is saving to C:\Users\my username\Documents. However, Dropbox is synchronising with folders on my D Drive, which is where I would like my Gnucash files to go. Probably I should have thought of that in the setup process, but I didn't. How can I now make that happen? I have setup

Griff, Sorry, I misunderstood the original post. I thought it was a single import, not two separate ones. David's suggestions should be the way to go in your case. As for retaining the second date, (presumably from the Credit Card account) see my reply to Frank. Regards, Adrien On

Frank, I think it would still be proper to use a current asset account. Should something interrupt the transit, the funds would not come out of the original asset account. But really, this now sounds more like a situation of simple clearing. I'm not sure the second date is necessary any more

Griif The import matcher should run on both the QIF import and the OFX/QFX import. It also has a time window in which it tries to match existing transactions which is not adjustable. Since the records are from two different companies there may not however be sufficient matching data in the

The most likely correct short answer: the import created two transactions rather than one. Your correction of the Imbalance assignment is not creating a new transaction, but correcting only one of the existing two separate transactions. Commit this fix, and then delete the extraneous

Take a look at the custom CSS in the options. I'm suspecting there is something there causing this block to float-right instead of float-left or else an errant large margin or padding exists for that block. If you aren't familiar with CSS and you can reply with an exported example invoice
