[GNC] Error noted

[John Ralls]

Probably not, because it's more than likely a field that isn't required to be filled, like reconcile date. You could search for "trn:date-posted" (if you use grep to do so you'll want to use `-A 1` to also get the following line) and see that all of those dates are sane... but if you have more than a few transactions that will be at best tedious.

Regards,
John Ralls
