Convert Ally Bank statements to Excel and CSV
Ally's activity download gives you a CSV or a Quicken file, and online banking shows 18 months of activity. The monthly statement is a different thing: the record with opening and closing balances, often covering every Ally account you have in one PDF. This page is for anyone who needs those statements as rows, for a tax return, a mortgage file or a client's books.

Statement notes
What to know about Ally Bank statements
One statement for all your accounts
If you have an Ally checking or savings account, Ally sends one monthly statement covering all of your accounts, CDs included. A single PDF can therefore hold several sets of activity and balances. When you import, send each account's rows to its own bank account in your books and reconcile each separately.
MM/DD dates, year elsewhere
Ally lists transaction dates as month and day only. The year comes from the statement period, which is what the converter uses to complete each date and write it as YYYY-MM-DD. Statements that run from December into January are handled, so rows sort correctly across a full year.
Cycles that don't end on the 31st
Your statement cycle ends on a day set by when you opened the account, not at month-end. For a calendar-month close, filter the converted rows by date; with full dates the filter is exact. Consecutive statements are also checked for gaps and overlaps.
Descriptions with no clear end
A long Ally description can wrap onto the next line without any marker. Copy it into a spreadsheet and the second half becomes its own row with no amount. The converter keeps reading until the next dated line starts, then joins the pieces into one description.
Output and review
From Ally Bank PDF to your books
Accounting tip
Ally's QFX download is still the simplest way into Quicken. For QuickBooks Online, upload the QuickBooks-ready CSV to the bank account and confirm the mapping; in Xero, the Xero-ready file goes through the bank statement import. Post each account from a combined statement separately.
