I've been importing OFX files for years. I agree it's definitely not a statement but a list of transactions over the specified time period.<br><br>As long as the transactions are showing up in the correct account I don't think there is a problem with the import process.<br>
<br>This seems like a reconciliation problem or maybe just reconciliation confusion.<br><br>After I import my OFX files all of the new transactions are highlighted in yellow. I simply right click on the transactions that I recognize (hopefully all of them) and select "Accept". This removes the yellow background and marks the transaction as "Cleared". If the "Accept" option is not available I simply click in the field where the status is shown (right of the Details field) to toggle through the status options (none, Cleared or Reconciled). I use the "Cleared" status to mean that I have matched the transaction to a receipt.<br>
<br>I make sure all of the transactions that are covered by the bank statement that I am trying to reconcile are marked "Cleared" before I start the reconciliation process. When this is that case all I have to do it set the statement date. If KMM matches my statement the ending balance in KMM will match the ending balance on the statement and the "Difference" value at the bottom of the Balance column will equal zero. <br>
<br>If you have to modify the ending balance in KMM then the Difference value will not be equal to zero, meaning there is a problem with one or more transactions or the starting balance. Since all of my transactions are imported via OFX it's extremely rare for me to have a problem reconciling my statements.<br>
<br>I hope this helps. If not please provide a lot more details about the problem.<br clear="all"><br>----<br>Brendan<br><br><img src="https://www.google.com/a/coupeware.com/images/logo.gif" height="39" width="96"><br><br>

</div>In addition to Allans questions, I would ask what is the format of the<br>
downloaded statement, and what does he mean by "KMM opened it?" KMM<br>
imports downloads of transactions, or on-line updates, not statements<br>
(unless I'm missing something.)<br>
<br>
Also, I import lots of OFX files, and when I reconcile, I almost always<br>
have to adjust the ending balance shown by the reconciliation wizard.<br>
