The "OK" Button

Everything really happens when you hit the "OK" button, so it gets a section to itself.

• First we do a "mark and sweep" to eliminate the duplicated halves of transfers in the loaded Quicken transactions.

• A GnuCash account tree is created which mirrors your existing tree and includes any new accounts added by your Accounts and Categories mappings.

• All the QIF transactions are converted into GnuCash splits and stuffed into the new account tree.

• Finally, the GnuCash engine is asked to merge the old account tree with the new account tree.
