Quick answer
Download your Interactive Brokers brokerage statement as a PDF from Client Portal under Reports > Statements, upload it to StatementPilot, and export Excel, CSV, QBO, OFX or QIF. We check that the "Starting Cash" plus every transaction equals the "Ending Cash" so you know nothing was missed.
What a Interactive Brokers brokerage statement looks like
IBKR activity statements are long, multi-currency reports; cash report and deposits/withdrawals sections are the parts used for bookkeeping.
US statements usually open with an account summary (beginning balance, deposits, withdrawals, fees, ending balance) followed by transaction sections and a daily balance table.
How to convert a Interactive Brokers statement
- Sign in to Client Portal under Reports > 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 "Starting Cash" plus deposits minus withdrawals should equal the "Ending Cash".
- Export to Excel or CSV for analysis, or QBO/OFX/QIF to import into QuickBooks Online, QuickBooks Desktop and Quicken.
Dates, amounts and account numbers in the US
Amounts use a period for decimals and commas for thousands (1,234.56). Withdrawals are often shown with a minus sign or in a separate column. We read the date order from the statement itself and default to MM/DD/YYYY for United States, so 03/04 is never silently swapped.
Only the last four digits of the account number are printed on most pages; the full routing number appears on checks, not in transaction rows. Only the masked or last digits are carried into QBO/OFX files, as those importers expect.
What gets extracted from a Interactive Brokers statement
For brokerage statements we extract the cash activity — deposits, withdrawals, dividends, interest, fees and trade settlements — as dated transactions with a running cash balance. Position and holdings tables are not exported as transactions.
Why statements are still needed
Banks must provide periodic statements under Regulation E for electronic transfers, and most keep 7 years of PDF statements available online.
Frequently asked questions
Can I convert a Interactive Brokers brokerage statement to Excel?
Yes. Upload the PDF and download an .xlsx file with date, description, amount and balance columns plus a summary sheet showing the starting cash, ending cash and reconciliation result.
How do I get my Interactive Brokers statement as a PDF?
Statements are available in Client Portal under Reports > Statements. Choose the statement period and download or save it as a PDF; a printed copy can also be scanned or photographed and uploaded.
Can I import Interactive Brokers transactions into QuickBooks Online?
Yes. Export the converted statement in the format QuickBooks Online accepts (QBO, OFX or a formatted CSV) and import it as a bank statement file. Dates are written in the format your software expects.
Do I need a Interactive Brokers template?
No. StatementPilot doesn't rely on bank-specific templates, so redesigned Interactive Brokers statements and older layouts both work. The reconciliation check confirms nothing was missed.
