Statement notes
What to know about Bank of America statements
Deposits and withdrawals in separate sections
Instead of one running list, activity is grouped: deposits in one section, withdrawals in another. Copying section by section is slow and easy to get wrong. The converter brings every section into one table with a single amount column, deposits positive and withdrawals negative, so you can sort the whole statement by date.
Ordered copies don't stay online long
Statements older than 18 months can be ordered back seven years. Bank of America says ordered copies arrive online within 24 to 36 hours and stay accessible for seven days, so download them as soon as they appear. Then upload them with your newer statements to confirm the run of months is complete.
Check images add pages, not rows
Online statements include check images. They help when you need to prove who a check was paid to, but they don't add transactions: each check is already a line in the activity, and that line is what becomes a row in your spreadsheet.
Balances sit in the summary
On a multi-page statement, the beginning and ending balances sit in a summary, often pages away from the last transaction line. Those two figures are what the rows are tested against. If beginning balance plus deposits minus withdrawals doesn't reach the ending balance, you're told before you export.

Keep business and personal accounts in separate imports. In QuickBooks Online or Xero, upload one month's CSV at a time, check the column mapping on the first import, and reconcile to the statement's ending balance before loading the next month.
