Hi!
As of now I'm used to import directly from YNAB setting a particular column of the exported file (where my bank writes a loooong description of the transaction) as "payee" field. With the CSV inport of the YNAB web app I have no problems because it automatically limit the field to the 100 max characters (valid for Payee) and in this way it also automatically categorizes the transactions as per my automated rules.
This is not working with ynab-buddy because as soon the app recognizes the very long description in the payee field it stops giving an error.

is it possible to include in the app itself an automation that limits the character imported to the 100?

Thanks!
Bruno
