Fails with almost every single format I tried. I can't import any transactions at all. Tested on Linux with versions 0.63.2 and 0.60.1

@ishanjain28 If you choose the right format and proceed with "Set mapping" (ignoring the red "Invalid") see if it actually succeeds. I've found that the displaying of "Invalid" is often invalid.

Related #581

Hey @iffy Thank you for that!

I was a bit confused initially because the set mapping button was also greyed out and I couldn't figure out why.

Later I learned that you can't have 2 columns tagged as the date. (doesn't make much sense anyway I guess and I am not sure why my bank does this either).

I was able to import all my tx and it works well! thank you
