Alliance Bank is a bank based in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Its account statements are issued as PDFs through online and mobile banking. Upload the statement PDF below and download a Xero-ready CSV (Date, Amount, Payee, Description) — extracted, normalized and reconciled first.
Xero imports bank statements from CSV when the columns match its template. This export produces exactly that template from the Alliance Bank PDF: signed amounts, ISO dates, payee and description split into their own fields.
The main use is accounts whose feed is delayed, duplicated or broken. Every conversion is checked against the statement itself: where the statement prints opening and closing (or running) balances, the extracted transactions must add up to them, or the conversion is flagged and the mismatched rows are marked. A statement whose layout the reader cannot parse is reported honestly — never passed off as converted.
Trust in the output comes from the statement's own arithmetic. Alliance Bank prints balances that its transaction list must sum to; the converter repeats that sum independently on the extracted data. A conversion only reports as reconciled when both tests agree to the cent — and when they do, the figures have been proven against the bank's own document, not merely read from it.
Read a Alliance Bank statement as three zones. The header zone names the account and the period — check those first, because a wrong-period PDF converts beautifully and reconciles against the wrong month. The middle zone is the transaction list itself. Second, glance at the statement's own subtotals before converting: section totals for deposits, withdrawals and fees are free checkpoints that tell you where a flagged difference is likely to live.
In Malaysia, bookkeepers commonly work in Xero and SQL Account; the Excel and CSV exports from this converter are the files those tools import, and the Xero export is laid out for direct import where the tool accepts it.
A workable rhythm: download the month's PDF the day the period closes, convert it, read the reconciliation verdict, then import. Months proven in order chain together — each closing balance becomes the next month's opening — so a difference is always owned by exactly one month.
If Xero reports duplicate statement lines on upload, a period has been imported before — usually through a feed that later started working. Delete the newer import rather than the older one if the older is already reconciled.
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 Alliance Bank online banking, add it to the converter above, and take the a Xero-ready CSV (Date, Amount, Payee, Description) it produces. Extraction, column normalization and the reconciliation check all happen before the download is offered.
Expect the order printed on the statement itself dates and amounts with the grouping printed on the statement itself on a Alliance Bank 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.
Convert them separately and import only one version of the overlap. Banks occasionally reissue a corrected statement for a period; the later issue supersedes the earlier, and importing both would double the shared days.
Yes. Download each month as its own PDF and upload them together — batch mode converts them in one run and, in Excel, adds a combined sheet. Each statement is still reconciled separately, because balances are per statement.
Yes. Credit-card statements use a Previous Balance / New Balance layout, which the converter reads as well; purchases are positive and payments are negative, and the same totals check applies.
Date, Description, Amount, Debit, Credit and Balance — the same normalized columns for every bank, so a Alliance Bank file and a file from any other bank in Malaysia can be imported and reviewed the same way.
The conversion is flagged, and the rows whose running balance disagrees with the statement are marked with the expected and printed figures. Nothing is silently adjusted — you see exactly where the statement and the extraction part company.
No. Uploaded files and generated exports are stored only briefly to complete the download and are automatically deleted within 15 minutes.
