Bank of Ireland statements list Date, Transaction details, Payments - out, Payments - in and Balance.
Irish statements show IBAN and BIC in the header and list Details, Debit, Credit and Balance columns with a 'Balance forward' line.
How to convert a Bank of Ireland statement
- Sign in to Bank of Ireland 365 online under Statements and download the statement for the period you need as a PDF (not a screenshot).
- If the PDF is password-protected, open it and save an unprotected copy first.
- Upload one or several months to StatementPilot. Scanned or photographed statements are read with OCR.
- Check the reconciliation panel: the "Balance Forward" plus deposits minus withdrawals should equal the "Closing Balance".
- Export to Excel or CSV for analysis, or QBO/OFX/QIF to import into Xero, Sage and QuickBooks Online.
Dates, amounts and account numbers in Ireland
Amounts use 1,234.56 with Debit and Credit columns. We read the date order from the statement itself and default to DD/MM/YYYY for Ireland, so 03/04 is never silently swapped.
Accounts are identified by IBAN and BIC. Only the masked or last digits are carried into QBO/OFX files, as those importers expect.
Importing Bank of Ireland transactions into your accounting software
Accountants in Ireland most often import into Xero, Sage, QuickBooks Online and Surf Accounts. Choose QBO for QuickBooks, the Xero CSV for Xero, OFX for most other packages, or Excel/CSV for anything else.
When your bank feed only goes back a few months, converted Bank of Ireland statements fill the gap for older periods without manual typing.
Why statements are still needed
eStatements are generally retained in online banking for at least 6 years.
