qfx/ofx import removes spaces in the transaction description
Last modified: 2018-06-29 21:10:05 UTC
Please describe the problem: When I tried to import qfx or ofx files using gnucash 2.0, all the spaces in the transaction description are removed. Steps to reproduce: 1. Start gnucash. 2. Select File->Import OFX/QFX 3. Assign each transaction to the appropriate account and category 4. Open the ledger for the account that was imported Actual results: The transaction descriptions appears as follows: 6/30/2006: "CreditInterest" 07/02/2006: "ExternalWithdrawalTHESTUDENT" Expected results: There should be spaces in the transaction descriptions: 6/30/2006: "Credit Interest" 07/02/2006: "External Withdrawal THE STUDENT" Does this happen every time? As far as I can tell, yes. Other information: I don't think I had this problem in 1.9.8; I didn't notice that this was happening until 2.0. However, I could be mistaken about this. I tried importing two different ofx files and one qfx file under 2.0, and I encountered this problem on each of the three files.
