Importing Split Transactions

Postby 4u2guess » Sat Jun 13, 2009 9:42 pm

I am importing old data from Moneydance. Right now I am having a serious problem with payroll deposits that typically have 16 splits. They originally came in with the payee different on every line, so I created a memorized transaction with the format I liked. I replaced each transaction with the memorized transaction. After I got through all 26 transactions for 1992, I discovered that the transfers were scrambled to different accounts that appeared in other split lines, but categories appeared to remain correct. I started to correct them, and found that the line order was inconsistent between transactions, but the incorrect account transfers seem to be consistent from transaction to transaction. Then I went back and looked at some I had corrected earlier and found them wrong again. After correcting them I try to mark them "Pending", and I get a write error. When I re-open the transaction, it will seem OK, if I have not strayed to another transaction between the correction and the attempt to mark Pending. I apologize for all the frustration showing here, as I have not yet backed off for a while.

This could be a legitimate issue based on your explanation.

Would you mind giving us a step by step how to reproduce this, as in create 16 accounts, create a split-transfer to 16 accounts, split #1 is $20 and it is going into account A, etc, memorize it, enter into register, there is a write error.

We want to have an exact replica of your workflow so we can troubleshoot this, you can either PM us or post here if you don't mind lack of privacy on public forum

Thanks

I have created a lengthy Open Document with illustrated step by step procedure which I want to PM to you, but I cannot figure out how to attach a file to a PM.
