Quick answer
Download your Morgan Stanley brokerage statement as a PDF from Morgan Stanley Online under Statements, upload it to StatementPilot, and export Excel, CSV, QBO, OFX or QIF. We check that the "Beginning Value" plus every transaction equals the "Ending Value" so you know nothing was missed.
What a Morgan Stanley brokerage statement looks like
Morgan Stanley statements include an Activity section with cash flows (dividends, interest, transfers) and a separate money-market sweep table.
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 Morgan Stanley statement
- Sign in to Morgan Stanley 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 "Beginning Value" plus deposits minus withdrawals should equal the "Ending Value".
- 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 Morgan Stanley 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.
