Hi all,
I'm just starting using the great Skrooge to manage my accounts, and I have to import a lot of data via csv files.
I'm facing two problems:
1) the sign of my csv operations is the opposite of what Skrooge expects (i.e., such files are based on expenses being positive and incomings being negatives); is there a way to change the sign to a set of operations?
2) some of such CSVs do not report a date but rather a month the operation refers to, is there a way to force Skrooge to substitue a month name to a fixed date in such month? (otherwise I have to do 12 replace all in the file, not an hard work).

Thanks

No, this is not possible but you can use LibreOffice or Excel to change the sign of transactions (by using a formula for expample).

Same answer, you can use LibreOffice or Excel to change the dates.
