Can I import existing data ?
I already use [application], and I don't want to loose all the work I've done there. Is there a way to import it in Skrooge ?
Or
Can I import statements downloaded from my bank in [format]
Skrooge support a large number of file formats, so there is every chance that you can successfully import existing data. Supported file formats are:
| Format | Comments | From version | Import | Export |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| OFX / QFX | Widely used by banks or applications. Standard specifications make it the more robust format when available | 0.1.0 |  |
|
| QIF | Widely used text format, but with no standard specification. Has some major drawbacks, like not containing the currency used, nor a defined date format. Skrooge does mostly better in processing this format than other applications, but there might still be some tricks here and there. | |
||
| CSV | Not a financial specific file formats, but sometimes used by banks or applications. Skrooge allows very flexible processing of these files | |||
| .kmy | The KMyMoney file format. | 0.7.0 | |
