Support for double-entry-System available?

[badbyt3]

Hi, as far as I have looked around in ezbookkeeping I came to the conclusion that a 'double-entry-System' isn't supported. I have the issue when importing my transactions which are under the double-entry-System. When importing these transactions to make a conversion would be useful.

ezBookkeeping is not a strict double-entry accounting system. It does not have expense, income or equity accounts.

For example, in ezBookkeeping, an expense transaction only deducts the amount from the source account, and the expense category will also contain this transaction. From a certain perspective, expense and income categories in ezBookkeeping are similar to the expense and income accounts in double-entry accounting software.

When importing data from some double-entry systems (such as GnuCash), ezBookkeeping follows the above rule. If you need to import data from other double-entry accounting software, you can also follow the same approach.

yep, it is because of a leading zero not being there. ezbookkeeping expects always 09.12.2025 and not 9.12.2025 or 9.2.2025.

the latest daily build has supported the date format without leading zero

Great thank you.

I removed the docker image in order to assure that I will pull the latest image.
Also removed all folder structures that are being created by your container, and also removed the docker container.
Yet I get the same error logs:

And here is a screenshot of the line where it failed:

Reminder vscode starts with the line count 1, so it is line 70.

You can check the version shown on the About page. It should be v1.3.2-dev (7a36932).
