What happened?

My bank provides a CSV file with all transactions sorted in a descending (most recent to least recent) order. When importing the CSV file, entries on the same date get imported to the ledger in reverse order.

I have also seen this issue when synchronizing with SimpleFIN.

How can we reproduce the issue?

To reproduce with CSV import:

  1. Import the "test-import.csv" file using the settings below.

test-import.csv

  1. The entries will be imported to the ledger in reverse order from the import screen.

Expected Result: The transactions would be imported and displayed in chronological descending order starting from 10 and continuing down to 1.

Where are you hosting Actual?

Docker

What browsers are you seeing the problem on?

Firefox

Operating System

Linux
