Good morning,

One of the problems I have importing OFX statements for my checking account is with checks that are cashed long after I wrote them. If I have not manually entered a check in the ledger, than I simply change all the necessary fields in the imported transaction. However, if I have already entered the transaction manually, I just have to delete the newly imported one. Unfortunately, I usually forget that I did so, alter the new transaction, and only discover I now have a duplicate transaction when the balance doesn't match. This wouldn't be a problem for me if the transactions were matched. The current matching will clearly not do it, since the dates are too far apart (as much as two months) but the check numbers and amounts are the same, and check numbers should be unique within account.

I'll be glad to submit a wishlist - but I want to check whether anybody sees any reason this would be a bad idea. I would propose that after the current matching logic is applied, if the imported transaction has not matched, then try to match it by check number and amount, even if the date seems far apart.


Jack
