There are as many possibilities as there are accountants to cause or fix
your dilemma.  The simplest is to assume that your source simply got the
sign wrong on some of the numbers in the QIF.  However, since you are
calling the account "Rebate" maybe the numbers are actually supposed to be
expenses assigned to an income account.  If your account tree doesn't match
what your source assumes, that is a different issue.

Either way, QIF files are easily edited with a text editor such as Libre
Office or Open Office.  You have to understand the QIF format and syntax to
change the account structure accurately.
