How to import a QIF file into your accounting software

QIF is the legacy Quicken import format, predating OFX. Import into Quicken via File → File Import → QIF File. QIF is still widely used because older Quicken versions and free tools like KMyMoney and HomeBank accept it, but the format lacks transaction-ID metadata — duplicate detection on re-import has to be handled manually, either by importing a fresh date range each time or letting your software merge and reconcile. QIF files embed the account type (Bank, Cash, Credit Card) in the header; our converter defaults to Bank, which is correct for chequing and savings and generally accepted for credit card statements. If you need duplicate protection or richer metadata, prefer QBO or OFX where the target software supports them.
