Hello again parag puranik, Please use reply-all to keep the discussion on the mailing list so everyone is across everything. I'm not a Gnucash developer or familiar with the importers as I never use them and others that use them often can probably offer more relevant suggestions :-) See my

Parag, The QIF importer component of GnuCash has been in place for a long time (well over 10 years to my knowledge and there have been few changes to the code base for it in that time). It has been used to import data from Quicken over that time so it is less likely for there to be a problem

Parag, If you were willing to do your own troubleshooting you would have already solved your problem and you would be in business. Asking others to speculate about what might be wrong about your data without showing the data is like asking people to tell you what password to use to unlock your

Hi parag puranik, I was actually referring to the Gnucash trace file on your Win10 desktop as that is where you had the error and not on your Android device :-) Also I did see an error report on Ngewi Fet's codinguser website to the effect that when you export qif from the android app it

I seem to recall that the importer underwent significant improvements in version 4.x as it was somewhat lacking prior to that? I would suggest updating to the latest version of Gnucash if at all possible. It looks like 2.6.19 was released Feb 2018 and 3.10 in April 2020 and a lot of development
