When you say “one by one”, are you importing transactions one by one ?  
When exporting from your bank account can’t you select a date range or period (month).  
Then you should be able to export and then import the entire date range / period in one file.

Currently you have the Bank set up as a Petty Cash type account.  
Edit the Cash Account and tick the “This account is maintained by a bank or other financial institution” box and the “Import Bank Statement” button will now appear

Did you read the Guide linked to above about importing bank statements? Specifically, did you click on the blue cleared balance amount for the bank account you want to import?

On your last screenshot the tick boxes on the left hand side aren’t ticked.  
Tick the very first one next to Date and that will auto fill all the others then click update

Hi lubos,

I have Manager 17.4.31, there is no IMPORT button at all. Where has the bank statement import function gone?
