GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 603289
Aqbanking import matching too tolerant
Last modified: 2018-06-29 22:31:19 UTC
I have the following two transactions in my bank account: Date: 23.11.2009 Description: Auszahlung GAA GA NR00000575 BLZ70080000 2 21.11/23.21UHR MUENCHEN EUR 50,00 GEB.EUR 0,00 Withdrawal: 50 and Date: 24.11.2009 Description: AUSZAHLUNG GAA GA NR00008439 BLZ70020270 2 23.11/17.54UHR MUENCHEN,SCHL EUR 50,00 GEB.EUR 0,00 Withdrawal: 50 After accidentially deleting the first one, i connected via AqBanking to my bank account in order to obtain it again. I expected that the matching procedure would recognize that the first transaction is missing and insert it again. However, it matched the first transaction with the still existing second transaction, although there are not too many similarities. It also matched the second transaction with itself, so this is not really a matching in the mathematical sense. I think that the matching procedure should recognize that the first transaction does not exist any more and recreate it. Maybe it should ask the user in doubt.
The matching rules are a big mess. See bug 335911 for (old) ideas on how to improve that, but nobody ever picked this up again and worked on this. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 335911 ***
