Importing Account Type

When importing a qif file, the account type is not being carried over and a default type of checking results. I don't see type in the qif mapping.

An example qif input:
!Account
NAmex
D
TCCard
L10,400.00
^

I don't see a way an import rule can accomplish the change from CCard to the iCompta standard Credit card account type.

Account type is not meant to be imported afterwards, only the first time a new account is encountered.

Thanks for the quick response!

I have manually corrected all of my accounts to the four types I use:
Assets
Cash
Checking
Credit card

When I do an export the qif file gives a type Bank for all of my accounts except one. For example:
^
!Account
NAmex
TBank
^

Strangely, one asset type account came out differently:
^
!Account
NFidelity Fund
TOth A
^

Is there any rule or procedure I can use to move the account type to a qif export file?
