Either way works. You can either Process Payment, or Right Clien -> Apply

Dont modify the XML file by hand. That's worse than replaying log files
when you have business transactions!
Just re-apply the payments, or mark the payment transactions properly.

In recreating the missing invoices the challenge is that duplicate
receivable entries will be created as well. Does anyone have a method they
would recommend to recreate invoices that will not throw off the receivable
account?

No. Autosave is a full save and as such updates the main file. The log files
are updated while you create/modify/delete a transaction.

Incorrect, AFAIK
Assuming you are using the XML back end to save your file (not SQLite), then
triggering a save (autosave, or File->Save)
Autosave simply updates the log file whereas closing the program updates the
main file, correct?

Yes, turn on Autosave. But it will only save if there are changes.

Uncompress the file. Your OS should have a utility that can do that.
On Linux I would use gunzip.

I'm glad you were able to engineer a solution!
For what it's worth, you might have had similar success by switching around the

David, thank you again! I was able to recover the missing account and ALL of

I based the estimate to be massive on your comments that you said you lost
hundreds of transactions and it will take hours to reconstruct your lost
data.
If you make a backup every 15 minutes, you should only lose 15 minutes work

Thanks David. I appreciate understanding how the program works. This is
helpful to know, even though it doesn't cure my problem. At least now I know
that if I can figure out how to read the log file it would help me to
manually reconstruct the transactions for the missing account.

Btrib,
I believe the CSV importer in release 3.3 is greatly improved over the old
importer. However, being relatively new it probably has a few kinks
remaining to be worked out.
IT appears that you are trying to do a massive import from old files,
possibly without sufficient planning and testing

I would be interested in digging deeper at what went wrong with the cvs import

I had tested with a small (c. 100 transactions) segment of the larger

A few days ago I was able to do my first successful CSV import on my GNC 3.3
