I’m managing to import .qif files OK, but when I save and quit, then return to homebank, the accounts show but there’s not transactions. Any idea what I’m doing wrong?
As the name specified “home bank” means a software which give us facilities to manage our accounts. It gives us multi-account facility. We can easily know about our bank as well as other accounts. It analysis our account and it is very dynamic and powerful report with graphical charts etc, one can easily understand it. I personally like this software.
