Comdirect is a bank based in Quickborn, Germany. Its account statements are issued as PDFs through online and mobile banking. Convert Comdirect statement PDFs to Excel, CSV or an accounting format — with a reconciliation check on every conversion.
For reviewing, sorting and analysing the statement outside your accounting software.
For feeding scripts, databases and anything that reads delimited text.
For moving an account between finance applications without retyping.
Statements from Germany banks print dates as day/month/year, often written day.month.year — 03.04.2026 means 3 April 2026 and amounts with points or spaces for thousands and a comma for decimals (1.234,56) — the converter's locale-aware reader handles that layout, and then the reconciliation check proves the result: the extracted transactions must add up to the balances printed on the statement itself, or the conversion is flagged.
The check itself is simple arithmetic, applied without exception: add the opening balance to every extracted transaction and compare the result with the closing balance printed on the Comdirect statement, then walk the running balances row by row. Passing both checks is the only route to a reconciled result; there is no partial pass and no silent correction. What cannot be proven is labelled, never smoothed over.
A Comdirect statement's layout decides how differences behave. In a chronological layout with a running balance, a single dropped row shifts every later balance, which makes it easy to spot. In a sectioned layout — deposits, then withdrawals, then fees — compare section totals first. Knowing which layout you hold tells you where to look before the marked rows even load.
In Germany, bookkeepers commonly work in DATEV, lexoffice and sevDesk; the Excel and CSV exports from this converter are the files those tools import, and the CSV export is laid out for direct import where the tool accepts it.
Ask clients for the issued PDFs rather than portal screenshots or spreadsheet exports. The PDF is the only version that carries the balances the check needs, and a folder of monthly PDFs plus their conversion results is an audit trail that assembles itself.
Start from where the numbers go next. Into a spreadsheet for your own work: Excel. Into accounting software: that tool's format — QuickBooks or Xero where offered — because its columns are already in the order the importer wants. Into older desktop software or a personal-finance app: OFX. Into anything else, or into cold storage: CSV, the format least likely to be refused. The transactions are identical in every file; only the packaging differs.
These are the general steps most banks follow for statement downloads; exact menu labels vary by bank and change over time.
Tip: if the bank offers both a statement PDF and a transaction-list PDF, take the statement — it is the one carrying the balances the reconciliation check needs.
Save the statement as a PDF from Comdirect online banking, add it to the converter above, and take the an Excel (.xlsx) workbook it produces. Extraction, column normalization and the reconciliation check all happen before the download is offered.
Expect day/month/year, often written day.month.year — 03.04.2026 means 3 April 2026 dates and amounts with points or spaces for thousands and a comma for decimals (1.234,56) on a Comdirect statement. The reader is locale-aware, so those conventions are handled rather than misread, and the output columns come out in the standard layout regardless.
Where the statement prints opening and closing (or running) balances, the converter adds up the extracted transactions and compares the result with the statement itself. If the numbers do not tie, the conversion is flagged and the mismatched rows are marked — a failed check is never shown as a success.
The statement PDF. It is the issued document and it carries the opening and closing balances the reconciliation check verifies against; a portal CSV has the transactions but nothing to prove them against.
No. The converter changes layout, not currency: figures stay in € exactly as Comdirect printed them.
Yes — convert each account's statements separately so each one reconciles against its own balances, then combine the exports in your software if you need a single view.
Scan the statement as flat and straight as you can and upload the scan. OCR reads it, and the reconciliation check verifies the read against the printed balances; rows it cannot verify are flagged for a manual look.
That depends on the bank's portal — most keep at least a year of PDFs online, and older periods can usually be requested. However far back you go, download each period as its own PDF.
No. Uploaded files and generated exports are stored only briefly to complete the download and are automatically deleted within 15 minutes.
Your first conversion is free — no card, no sign-up — and every result is reconciled against the statement itself before you download it.
