qifqif 0.8.0

Description

CLI tool to enrich your QIF files transactions with category information, hence cutting down import time from minutes to mere seconds.

QIF is a format widely used by personal money management software such as GnuCash to import information. Yet, the import process is particularly tedious as it require to manually pair the transactions contained in the file with categories (or “accounts” for double-entry bookkeeping systems).

qifqif augment your qif files by adding a category line for each transaction, that additional information can then be used by accounting software to perform automatic QIF imports. It picks categories by searching for predefined keywords in transactions descriptions lines and by repeating choices you previously made regarding similar transactions.

Features

• Quickstart: create categories by importing your existing accounts with qifacc

• Blazing fast edits: thanks to well-thought-out defaults and <TAB> completion

• Auditing mode: review your transactions one by one

• Batch mode (no interactive): for easy integration with scripts

• Easy-going workflow: dreading the behemoth task of importing years of accounting from a single file? Don’t be. Go at your own pace and press <Ctrl+C> to exit anytime. On next run, editing will resume right where you left it.
