Convert Capital One statements to Excel
Capital One's website lists two years of past transactions, but statements go back seven years once you're enrolled in paperless statements. For anything older than the transaction list, or anything a lender or accountant wants as an official record, the statement PDF is the source. This page covers what's specific to Capital One bank statements and how they come out after conversion.

Statement notes
What to know about Capital One statements
Dates that skip the year
Capital One prints transaction dates without the year and leaves it to the statement period. The converter reads that period and completes each date, including on statements that cross from December into January, then writes them as YYYY-MM-DD.
Several accounts, one statement
Capital One combines Direct accounts into one statement on its own, so a single PDF can hold more than one account's activity. Check which account each section belongs to before importing, and post each to its own bank account in your books.
When statements arrive
Bank statements are typically generated online by the 6th of each month, and a savings account with no activity may only get a quarterly one. That's fine for conversion. What matters is that each statement starts where the previous one ended, which is exactly what the period check looks at.
Not every check has an image
Check images usually appear online within a business day, but some never do, such as bill pay checks and checks converted to electronic payments. When you're ticking off checks against the converted rows, match those by amount and date instead.

Accounting tip
When you upload a CSV to QuickBooks Online or Xero, you tell it which column holds the date, description and amount; the ready-made file for each makes that a quick confirmation. Code savings interest apart from transfers so the year's interest is easy to pull.
