I'm new to GC and have been playing around with it for a few hours and
ready to start importing.
I have created an account called Assets:Current Assets:PayPal which has
a opening balance of 100.00
Logged into PayPal and exported my transactions to a CSV file
Then on GC import transactions from CSV
Select Account = Assets:Current Assets:PayPal
Date = Date
Deposit = Net
Description = Subject
On match transactions I then get a lot of errors about new, unbalanced
need acct to transfer.
Example:
Date 6/4/2023
Amount 2.34
Description: Sale 001
Comments: New, UNBALANCED (need acct to transfer -2.34)
What is this error all about? I have to right click on and select a
transfer account for all of the transactions. Does this have to be done
every time for each transaction?
On the import I chose Account = Assets:Current Assets:PayPal, so am a
bit confused what transfer account it's referring to.
New to GC, so don't fully understand all the concepts.
Running GC 4.11 on Ubuntu 22.10.
