12:41:04 <metafarion> Hey, does anyone know a smarter way than plain trial-and-error to match online accounts with the same account number to local gnucash accounts? Like if you have a Checking account and a Savings account at the same institution and they both have the same account number....you can't tell which one is which in the Match screen.
12:46:06 <warlord> metafarion, what import method?
12:47:03 <metafarion> ofx
12:47:31 *** loewexy has joined #gnucash
12:47:49 <metafarion> or... is it aqofxconnect?
12:47:58 <warlord> metafarion, you should only need to do the matching once... So maybe just download one account at a time the first itme?
12:48:28 *** loewexy has quit IRC
12:49:27 <metafarion> Can you do that? when I look in OFX DirectConnect User Setup, you can Retrieve Account List, but it doesn't ask you which ones to add. In fact, for me it seems to overwrite accounts I already have configured that have the same account number.
12:50:16 <metafarion> Like it'll just clobber my checking account and put my savings account in its place. And then I have to go back and add the checking account by hand, but I'm back to the same problem with account matching where I can't tell which one is which in on the Match screen.
12:50:48 <warlord> Oh, Hmm.. Yeah, if OFX is reporting the exact same account number for both accounts, there is really no way to differentiate them.
12:51:01 <metafarion> Do we know, is there a reason the Account Name you give an account doesn't appear on the Match screen?
12:51:06 <warlord> Arguably the importer should combine account type with the account number.
12:51:34 <warlord> I do not know.. I don't use the importers.
12:52:26 <metafarion> Seems like a significant barrier to entry for new users. Particularly if they have like a dozen accounts to add and we're not 100% sure what the manual settings should be :-P
12:52:52 <warlord> metafarion, feel free to file an RFE in Bugzilla
12:53:00 <warlord> It is a reasonable request.
12:53:02 <metafarion> not a bad idea...
12:58:06 *** calvinct has joined #gnucash
13:05:46 <fell> metafarion: ISTR, this was discussed some time ago on the aqbanking mailing list and fixed in the unreleased aqbanking6
13:06:06 *** oozer has joined #gnucash
13:06:39 <fell> You could try to build the recent aqbanking beta and test it.
13:07:04 <fell> So there should be no need to file a bug against gnucash.
13:07:39 <fell> Instead check aqbankings issues database.
13:11:58 <fell> mikee: I get now
13:11:59 <fell> gnucash/gnome/dialog-invoice.c:1935:9: error: implicit declaration of function ‘gtk_widget_set_selectable’; did you mean ‘gtk_label_set_selectable’? [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
13:12:00 <fell> gtk_widget_set_selectable (iw->id_entry, TRUE);
13:12:02 <fell> ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
13:12:03 <fell> gtk_label_set_selectable
13:16:21 <metafarion> Oh, that's promising for the future. They've been on various betas of version 5.99 since December.

17:37:25 <mikee> fell: OK. I'll revisit that. because I don't think that works.
17:47:20 <jralls> metafarion: You're looking at it backwards. GnuCash can only associate one account with an online account number. The matcher is for matching the *other* account, usually the income or expense account, based on the description.
17:49:06 <jralls> metafarion: I think the only way you can work around your bank is to create a container account with both your checking and savings as sub accounts and associate that with the online account number. Do the import and then reassign the splits to the checking or savings subaccounts afterwards.
18:08:28 <fell> For AqBankings FinTS backend the Commerzbank was the first with shared account numbers. I did not follow the discussion, but think they found a solution.
18:12:58 <fell> Sorry, I meant its daughter ComDirect

19:04:53 <jralls> @tell gjanssens fell, warlord, I'll be mostly AFK through Sunday. I'll be at a genealogy conference in St. Louis.
19:04:53 <gncbot> jralls: The operation succeeded.
19:05:24 <fell> Have Fun!
19:06:41 <jralls> Thanks.
19:08:11 <fell> But is too late for Mardi Grass ;-)
19:14:57 <jralls> St. Louis isn't well known for Mardi Gras. Too protestant. Louisiana is really the only state where Carnivale is a thing.

19:33:42 *** jralls has quit IRC
20:06:28 <warlord> metafarion, however you reassign the splits then I think the importer will not recognize previous imports properly.
