FR: automatically remove "!" flags

Open falsifian opened this issue 4 years ago • 3 comments

I often flag transactions or individual postings with "!" if I enter them before my bank tells me about them. It would be nice if beancount-import removed these when I import the corresponding transactions.

I might try implementing this myself.

Any progress on this?

Sorry, I never ended up working on it.

In practice, I've found I don't use ! any more, maybe because beancount-import shows me a list of unmatched transactions. I'd be okay with closing this; not sure if anyone else wants it.

I ended up writing a plugin for Beancount/Fava which sets the flag based on some metadata logic. This ended up working fine for my use-case and reducing my need of this feature. Still, I can see value in having this support in beancount-import.
