13:31:44 <smileboot> I have just imported my account information from my BOA account which includes Checking Saving and credit card. Im just wondering what i do with all these double entrys from transfers between accounts. I.E checking says " transfer to saving" saving says "transfer from checking" and both currently point to imbalance and if i change it for both ill have double entrys.
13:32:04 <smileboot> any help or ideas appreciated
13:46:25 <jsled> well, there's the obvious: change one, delete the other.
13:46:52 <jsled> I'd hope the duplicate-transaction finder would, uh, find the duplicates on import, if they are categorized appropriately.
14:11:54 <smileboot> sadly no detection if there was some way of just telling it there the same transaction i think it was not caught simply because each account named it different :/
14:12:23 <smileboot> i was trying to avoid option 1 since this will probably be done over and over as i continue to import
14:13:24 <smileboot> if there was some way to tell the program that they are the same transaction i would be golden

15:54:06 <zanberdo> hello, I've been using gnucash for some time and I'm finding myself needing to run a year-to-date report on my expenses, but I have no idea how to specify a date range.
15:54:23 <zanberdo> note: gnucash 2.2.6 on ubuntu 8.10

17:22:09 <warlord> smileboot: They weren't detected as duplicates because you didn't properly assign them during import.
17:27:45 *** twunder has quit IRC
17:39:21 <smileboot> warlord and how did i mess that up?
17:39:33 <smileboot> if you could take a guess?
17:40:11 <warlord> As I said, you didn't assign those transactions to the proper "other" account. E.g., when you imported your checking account and it had the "transfer to savings" transaction, you needed to have assigned that the "savings" account.
17:40:22 <warlord> The fact that it imported as Imbalance means you didn't assign it manually.
17:40:45 <warlord> IMHO it's a bug that the importer lets you complete the import without having assigned it.
17:40:55 <warlord> ... but that's a different issue and a long-standing gripe of mine.
17:43:58 <smileboot> how do i assign it then?
17:48:12 <warlord> doubleclick.
17:50:06 *** MechtiIde has quit IRC
17:51:22 <smileboot> O_o
17:52:37 <smileboot> doubleclick what?
17:53:47 <warlord> the account mapping inthe import window.
17:55:40 <smileboot> ahh you mean when i choose which account to bind the import to i bound the import to the corresponding accounts savings import to savings and checking import to checking
17:59:48 <warlord> sometihng like that, yes.
18:01:15 <smileboot> so i should have double clicked when i selected the appropriate accounts not just clicked :/
18:07:24 <smileboot> :/
18:07:33 <smileboot> i see what i did wrong danngit
18:07:40 <smileboot> thanx for the help warlord
18:07:53 <warlord> you're welcome.
18:08:02 <warlord> (yes, the UI should be more clear)
18:12:49 <warlord> okay, i need to run

19:23:40 <phil> Warlord/jsled, I've been waiting for your input before I start setting up for a 2.4 release. I'm willing to act as the release manager. I assume I should talk to andi5 re procedure.
19:24:04 <jsled> *thumbsup*
19:24:34 <phil> we would have the dbi/sql backend as well as report improvements

22:14:17 <taka76> Hello question. I seem to have an issue with importing an OFX file into gnucash (using windows). I'm importing about 6 months worth of credit card statements (files split by credit card co. by month). Successfully importanted the first month but when I try to import any months after that I get a blank screen. Going by how this feature worked with other banks OFX files I realize gnucash has some logic so it doesn't reread transac
