            Bug ID: 323480
           Summary: 1.) OFX import Online Statement Balance error.
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: kmymoney4
           Version: 4.6.3
          Platform: MS Windows
                OS: MS Windows
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: kmymoney-devel at kde.org

KMyMoney is a fantastic application!  I have chosen it over Quicken, GNUcash,
and NolaPro after extensive testing.  Thank you for the fabulous development to
date.

When I download an OFX file for a previous period ending date 1/31/2013 prior
to the current date 8/14/2013 for my checking account from CHASE bank, the
following code appears toward the end of the OFX file when viewed using
Microsoft Notepad:
<LEDGERBAL>
<BALAMT>15945.01
<DTASOF>20130814120000[0:GMT]
</LEDGERBAL>
When I import the file, unfortunately, KMyMoney creates and uneditable register
entry:
1/31/2013 Online Statement Balance $15,945.01 that cannot be deleted.
This unfortunately is NOT the balance for 1/31/2014 - it is the balance for
8/14/2013.  KMyMoney does not appear to compare the ending date to the field
<DTASOF> and suppress entry of an erroneously dated Online Statement Balance. 
The program still functions properly, as this value is ignored, but it is
bothersome to look at as it conflicts with the program balance immediately
above it which is correct for 1/31/2013.
I am able to work around the problem by first using Microsoft Notepad to edit
the OFX file and delete the four lines above, after which importing works fine
and does not create any Online Statement Balance register entry at all, which
is preferable as the entry is going to be the wrong balance.

Reproducible: Always
