[GNC] Transaction importing questions

[Adrien Monteleone]

Adding to previous answer:

#2 - Create Sub-Accounts for you and your spouse of the Credit Card 
account. Import to them separately as Sherlock noted, then when 
reconciling, you can do one at a time and see only one set of 
transactions. You won't be able to finish the reconcile, because at 
best, you can just check cleared transactions this way. When both of 
these are done, reconcile the parent account and choose to include 
sub-accounts. Now that everything on the statement has been checked as 
cleared, you are just entering balance info and a closing date. If you 
have a variance, then you'll have to dig in and get messy, but that 
would happen in any case.

Regards,
Adrien
