[GNC] Importing CC Transactions, Positive or Negative, Debit or Credit?

[Jediator]

Did the payment transactions imported as charges (negative)?  If that 
the case, yes, you need to choose Amount Negated for the Amount column.  
If not, your CSV may have an additional column indicating if a 
transaction is a credit or debit, and the amount column contains all 
positive values.  In this case, you may have to manually edit your CSV 
before import or edit your transactions in GNC after import.  Another 
option would be to create a macro in excel to make all credit 
transactions negative..

Hope this helps.
