Fallback columns #24

Open wizonesolutions opened 5 years ago

The TransferWise Borderless Account CSV format separates payees depending on if I'm spending or receiving. It has a Payer Name column for receiving and a Merchant column for spending.

It would be great if I could tell the app to use one of them by default, and the other if the first one was blank. I think just a single fallback column would be enough for similar use cases.

I should mention that I use the Amount column format (not outflow/inflow) for this CSV.

Ah, all these CSV formats 🙈 I won't have time to implement this change in the coming months, but I agree this could be useful.

Also since YNAB introduced their public API it seems there are now more syncing tools, e.g. https://syncforynab.com/ which I recommend checking as my tool is not heavily maintained ✨

Thanks for the reply! Maybe I can try to send a PR. Sync for YNAB is interesting, but it's mostly UK-oriented (and doesn't support TransferWise yet). But I might ask them if they have plans for it, since TW does have an API.
