           Summary: QIF investment import with Lcategory:sub-category
                    creates new incorrect category
           Product: kmymoney4
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Unlisted Binaries
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kmymoney-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: egroegbaker at yahoo.com


Version:           unspecified (using KDE 1.2) 
OS:                Linux

This bug has been tested with an import of Interest, Dividends and Management
fees into an investment account. Since no actual share activity takes place
(Buy or Sell), all transactions are placed in the brokerage account with
relevant category:sub-category descriptions. These are existing categories and
sub-categories which have transactions from manual input.

When importing a QIF investment file with Lcategory:sub-category, which
indicates the sub-category type for the transaction, the importation takes
place without error. In the ledger view of the brokerage account all appears
correct with the Category field or the Interest field displaying what appears
to be Category:Sub-category.

However when inspecting the category list it is evident that a new category
only has been created with the name of "Category:Sub-category" as one word and
the transaction has been allocated to this category with nothing in the
existing sub-category.

As mentioned the exact same transaction can be done manually with no error or
newly created categories. This bug only occurs in QIF import and I believe only
in QIF investment import. I have tested a QIF Bank file (!Type:Bank) from Allan
Anderson and QIF Bank files downloaded from my own bank. The transactions are
correctly allocated to existing sub-categories and are correctly created when
none exist. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
An example of the QIF which causes the error is given in Additional Information
File>Import>QIF... Select file with the default profile. Import.

Actual Results:  
A new category only is created with the name of "Category:Sub-category" as one
word and the transaction is allocated to this category with nothing in the
existing sub-category.


Expected Results:  
The transactions should be correctly allocated to existing sub-categories and
correctly created when none exist.

I am using KMM 1.0.5 on KDE 3.5.10, but I believe this bug is common to the
latest version.
