Hello folks,

The Ledger workflow has been great. Thanks for all who contributed!

There's one last weak point. I find it very cumbersome to pull bank transactions (csv files) from my bank account manually. If I could let it be pulled automatically, then I can drop those commercial apps for good.

How would you deal with this aspect? Is there such a way?

Thank you very much!

Best,

Jin

I do it through a combination of Selenium web browser automation and Python scripts exporting into ledger file. It is some scripting work to set it up, but it better serves me as commercial apps.

https://github.com/egh/ledger-autosync can do this, although I've not used that functionality of it because I've found archiving CSV or OFX files to be a needed step for me.
