Debbi,

Thomas is the developer that mentioned that I'm working with to fix
some of my Schwab OFX import problems. My problems probably won't
affect your bank account with them. I'm not sure what the difference
is between the plugins but I'm pretty sure I'm using the KMM OFX
plugin that he asked you to verify is loaded and enabled. It is for
me. I do not have the KBanking plugin available.

Assuming you have the plugin enabled I'll walk you through the steps I
took to get my Schwab account to work:

>From the menu, Account, Map to online account. Hopefully you will see
two tabs, Automatic and Manual. You can try the Automatic. I get 3
options when I type in Schwab for the search and none of them work for
my brokerage account. Since you have a bank account it may be
different for you.

If none of them work you can try the manual tab. The settings that
work for me are:

Org: ISC
Fid: 101
URL: https://ofx.schwab.com/cgi_dev/ofx_server

I hope this helps. Like I said earlier, there is a phishing site out
there trying to get you info. The URL has a slightly different name so
be careful if you find any help and type the Schwab part of the URL
instead of cutting and pasting it.
