[GNC] What type of Data should i use to import from GnuCash Android to Desktop ?

[David Cousens]

CSV is comma separated variables. The data is arranged in a series of
columns/fields with or without an initial header line specifying the column
name/content. A newline character terminates a line of columns. Blank fields
are indicated by successive commas. Other characters than a comma can be
used as the field separator.  It is a general non- specifiic format commonly
used in data fields. names in the  initial header line generally have to be
mapped to specific transaction data fields during import.

QIF is a proprietary format used by Intuit in some of its products for
financial/accounting data. As it is generated usually by an accounting
product it generally specifies bth accounts a transaction addresses. Not
familiar enough  with it to know  whether it handles true multisplit data
for more than 2 splits.

There are more complete descriptions of the file formats on Wikipedia and in
QIF usually to a specification.
