    Over the past two times I have exported transactions I have noticed that some transactions, usually one, are being exported on the wrong side of the ledger, i.e as a credit instead of a debit.

    I have identified the cause of the error. The normal number of fields in the export is 5 but the transactions in error has 6 (marked in brackets below)

    23/12/2022 (1),POSC22DEC HOMESAVERS (2), (3),3.50 (4), (5), (6)

    Normally 5 as per below

    23/12/2022 (1),POSC22DEC O DONNELLS (2),1.00 (3), (4), (5)

    The fields are date, transaction details, debit value, credit value, balance

    The transaction for HOMESAVERS above is in error as that was a debit and the cause is because, looking on the mobile app, the transaction detail HOMESAVERS is actually HOMESAVERS,

    The additional trailing comma in the transaction detail needs to be stripped out as the CSV export is seeing it as another field.
