--- Comment #4 from Jack <ostroffjh at users.sourceforge.net> ---
I don't know if there is any good solution to the issue of a transfer wanting
to have a different date on each end, since KMM does force a single date for
all splits of a transaction.  In paying paying my credit card from checking
account, I simply accept that one of the dates is actually off by a day or two.
 At some point, I'll probably file a wish-list bug to allow KMM to maintain two
dates for a transaction (or a split, I'm still not sure which will work better
if at all possible) - a transaction date and a posting date.  Which side shows
an earlier date depends whether the trasfer is a paper check (credit account
deposit first) or an electronic payment (check withdrawal first.)

In terms of  how  far back the update account goes - is this really a checking
account, or an investment account?  I have discovered that investment accounts
do not actually store the "last update" date, and so always go back 60 days
despite the configuration setting.  (I need to do more research before
submitting a bug and/or patch.)  You can check this by creating a file
"ofx.log" in your home directory.  The ofx update will then store the log of
the transaction in that file.  See  what date KMM is actually requesting as the
start date for download.
