What happened?

I'm not sure with which release this started to fail, but the CSV files my (German) bank generates can't be imported to Actual v23.10.0. These CSV files generally use semicolons as delimiters and comma as decimal separators.

I created two test files for your convenience, one using comma as delimiter (and period as decimal separator) and one using semicolons. The first can be imported as expected, the second seems to fail some kind of parsing as you can see in the screenshot below.

Files: Comma.csv | Semicolon.csv

Actual import CSV with semicolon delimiters

What error did you receive?

See screenshot above. Import is not possible. After rewriting the CSV to use comma as delimiter (and period as decimal separator), the import was successful.

While I am facing this issue on my personal instance, I was able to reproduce the behavior on the current test server at: https://actualbudget.netlify.app

Where are you hosting Actual?

Docker

What browsers are you seeing the problem on?

Firefox, Safari

Operating System

Mac OSX

I have the exact same issue. No matter whether I use Safari or Firefox. I also self host the server, which apparently makes not difference.
