Generic "Import from CSV" #80

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
I come from WM and use handbase to track expenses. Daily money, in itself, it a 
much, much better tool than a handbase database in handling money movement, and 
looks the most flexible in the whole market.
I was kind of disappointed though, to discover that the "Import CSV" function 
was referred only to the proprietary CSV export files generated.

In my opinion, there should be a way to import from CSV files defyning the 
"role" of each column.
In particular, I had my database with following columns:
Date, Description of operation, Income value, Outcome value, (balance = 
income-outcome, calculated value that is not necessary)
so a basic import function would include this kind of function.
