How to Export Bank Statements to QuickBooks: Complete 2026 Guide

5 min read

Tired of manually entering bank transactions into QuickBooks?

Our new Accounting Export feature lets you convert any PDF bank statement directly to QuickBooks-compatible formats. In this guide, you'll learn:

  • How to export to QBO format for QuickBooks Online
  • How to export to IIF format for QuickBooks Desktop
  • Step-by-step instructions for the entire process
  • Tips for accurate transaction categorization

What's the Difference Between QBO and IIF?

QuickBooks supports two main import formats:

  • QBO (Web Connect): The modern format for QuickBooks Online and newer Desktop versions. Preserves transaction details and is the recommended format.
  • IIF (Intuit Interchange Format): The legacy format for QuickBooks Desktop. Still widely used for complex imports.

Our converter supports both formats, so you can choose the one that works best for your QuickBooks version.

Step 1: Upload Your Bank Statement

Start by uploading your PDF bank statement:

  1. Go to our Accounting Export tool
  2. Drag and drop your PDF or click to upload
  3. Wait for the PDF to be processed (usually 2-3 seconds)

Our AI automatically detects and extracts transaction tables from any bank's statement format.

Step 2: Review Extracted Data

Before exporting, review the extracted transactions:

  • Verify dates are correctly parsed
  • Check that amounts match your statement
  • Review descriptions and payee names
  • Make any necessary edits directly in the preview

Step 3: Export and Import into QuickBooks

Download your QuickBooks-ready file and import:

For QuickBooks Online (QBO):

  1. Go to Banking → Upload transactions
  2. Select your bank account
  3. Choose the downloaded QBO file
  4. Review and accept transactions

For QuickBooks Desktop (IIF):

  1. Go to File → Utilities → Import → IIF Files
  2. Select the downloaded IIF file
  3. Review imported transactions
