CSV Importing

I just tried importing transactions from a Bank of America credit card statement older than a year, because they don't support CSV downloads after 12 months. Most of the data was correctly identified (date, merchant), but the last four digits of my account was incorrectly chosen to be the amount of every transaction. Is there any way to give the PDF import guidance similar to the field mapping in the CSV import to work around this problem?

When uploading a CSV / PDF, the dropdown shows "Amount" as a required field, BUT - you can also use the inflow (amount) and outflow (amount) instead. Users shared how they were confused at first, because they didn't have a single Amount field and needed to use inflow/outflow, but that meant not using a required field. Perhaps we can add a note in the blue information box at the top? Eg. "If you have your debits and credits in separate columns, you can use the "inflow (amount)" and "outflow (amount)" attributes instead of the Amount"

I've exported my historical account balanced from mint's trends view. It's a CSV with the columns: Account, Month, Balance. I'd love to be able to import these easily into the net-worth view

I would like to be able to import category groups via CSV. Atm we can only import categories. This would help with importing from YNAB (i.e.( https://feedback.lunchmoney.app/general-feature-request/p/import-from-ynab ))

Currently, when importing transactions, there is an option to skip duplicates entirely, but no option to choose which version of a duplicate to keep. It would be helpful to have the option to replace existing transactions with imported duplicates or to choose which version to retain (similar to deduplication tool). This would be especially useful when importing historical data from another source, such as a spreadsheet, where the imported transactions may already have been cleaned up, reviewed, and categorized.

Currently, if the Amount field is formatted in Google Sheets (i.e. "– $ 187.44"), Lunch Money fails to read the amount correctly. It would be great if Lunch Money automatically ignored the dollar sign and recognized debits and credits correctly. This also fails if the amount field includes currency symbols. Accounting notation should also be supported, where parentheses around amounts indicate debits. Also, add support for the leading dash / en dash (−100,00), as it currently only supports the hyphen-minus sign (-100,00). See screenshots.

Sometimes I don't remember when I last imported for an account, would be helpful to see an import history after account selection in the CSV importing tool

During CSV import, under 'Additional Settings', there is not information tooltip next to the "Set delimiter" field. It should explain what it means, for those who may not be familiar with CSV files: "The delimiter is the character that separates the values in each row. Most CSV files use a comma. If your file uses a different character, you can specify it here."

During CSV/PDF import, automatic category mapping currently relies on exact string matching, which leads to failed matches when category names differ slightly (e.g., due to leading or trailing emojis). Category matching should be more flexible by ignoring leading and trailing emojis. Example: "🥑 Groceries" vs. "Groceries"
