Hi, I'm importing an OFX and my peers bank accounts are ignored, how should I modify my OFX so that they are recognized? An simple example would be perfect.

OFX file should have account number of your wallet-account present in <BANKACCFROM> section,
with label <ACCTID>.
This is positioned in the OFX-file header. Example:

<BANKACCTFROM>
<BANKID>000000
<BRANCHID>000000
<ACCTID>0123456789 <<<<<<<
<ACCTTYPE2>checking
</BANKACCTFROM>

success.

Oh, I did not mean the accout number of the whole account, but the numbers from PEERS in transactions.

my OFX has this, it's ignored however:

    <BANKACCTTO>
      <BANKID>0200</BANKID>
      <ACCTID>123456789</ACCTID>
      <ACCTKEY/>
    </BANKACCTTO>

Sorry, but Homebank does not use Peers-account- or Offset-account-number from OFX import.
The only OFX work around is to change this data into an extra <MEMO> field and (with Homebank import memo switch to description) it ends up in Description.

While importing homebank could autimaticaly create recipients as defined by bankid/accnumber.

Can you help with this problem?
