11:39:50 <gruzilla> hey there! i want to switch to gnu cash over the holidays :) i already have some accounts set up. my bank (unicredit - bank austria) does not support hbci. they only allow me to download a CSV. is there any way to automatically categorize the transfers from the CSV into the accounts i created in gnu cash?
11:41:37 <richard> When you say CSV, are you meaning comma seperated variable? If so this is not a format, but a set of formats. Very ill defined.

12:01:49 <gruzilla> yes i am talking about a comma separated values file (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comma-separated_values). it is a very bad format. unfortunately my bank only offers this option.. however, i already managed to import these transactions into 1 account in gnu cash. what i am looking for is, if there is a way to automatically move these transaction into my expenses-sub-accounts books/charity/computer/ect.. because as i try to
12:01:49 <gruzilla> import my whole 2014-2018 history

15:12:04 <fell> gruzilla: In general I would prefer qif over csv as import format, but ...
15:13:30 <fell> OTOH you can import and adjust the csv in your preferred spreadsheet program.
15:15:11 *** nimish has quit IRC
15:18:10 <fell> I.e. create a few typical transactions manually in gnucash, export them to csv to have a pattern how your entries should look and the adjust your downloaded file.
15:20:39 <fell> Another approach is to import at first in small chunks to teach the Bayesian algorithm your associations
15:22:38 <fell> Therefor you have to assign the right accounts in the importer.

15:50:48 <gruzilla> thanks @fell! i think ill try one of the qif converters! https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/FAQ#Comma-Separated_Values_.28CSV.29_or_similar.3F and then train the bayesian algorithm with selected transactions!
