[GNC] import .OFX fiasco

[Jeff Albrecht]

Hi GNUCash users,

(some list members may remember a recent question I had about merging 
.OFX before import. All the .OFX files were created by the cu. The merge 
experiment, tabled, never touched my books)

I opened a money market account at my Credit Union (cu) in 2025. While 
importing the entire year of transactions for the new account and others 
at that same cu via a .OFX import I have mangled my books.

My cu accounts are Assets:CurrentAssets. I believe when asked during the 
import I attached the transactions to a single existing 0 transactions 
empty Assets:CurrentAssets emtpy Money Market account created from my 
original import from Quicken or from GNUCash..

A transaction report shows what appears to be many (?all?) deposits in 
the Debit column while many expenditures appear in the Credit column. 
Possibly wrong account type specified during account creation? Unlikely 
but possible. I'm no GNUCash power user but I have been using it for 
seven or more years. Can the account type be changed one created and 
entries added?

Can I delete the entire Money market account, re create and re import 
the .OFX file? What effect will that have on matching transactions in 
other existing accounts.

Restoring a backup from prior to the input is possible but I would loose 
hundreds of transactions memo details that are not included in the .OFX 
entered painstakingly over the course of a day of data entry (ebay 
amazon etc. item details)

Hoping for some insight and possible fix,,,
