Bank statements in detail

What makes it trustworthy

It refuses rather than guesses.

If the figures do not prove out, you get no import file. You get a message saying what failed and where. You do not get a file that looks fine and quietly carries a wrong number into a client's ledger.

  • Every row, against the balance printed beside it. A misread row breaks the chain.
  • The statement's own totals, where the bank publishes them. The one check that does not depend on how we read the rows.
  • A scan is read twice, independently. If the two readings do not agree, it is refused.
  • A layout we cannot read yet says so, and it is never reported as a problem with your client's books.
