Public Bank statements to CSV: what you get

This export writes the Public Bank transactions as comma-separated values, UTF-8 encoded so descriptions with accented characters survive, amounts in plain decimal form, ready for any system that takes a file upload.

The main use is feeding scripts, databases and anything that reads delimited text. 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.

Reconciliation is what separates conversion from copying. Once the Public Bank transactions are extracted, the converter replays them: opening balance plus each row in turn must reproduce every printed running balance and land exactly on the closing figure. A dropped row, a duplicated row or a misread digit breaks the chain and is flagged at the row where it breaks, with the expected and printed balances shown side by side.

A Public Bank 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. A reconciliation difference is most often one of those large items — a duplicate, a drop, or a digit misread — and knowing the candidates in advance shortens the search considerably.

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.

Catching up a year of Public Bank books

Download all twelve periods first and convert them as one batch, then work through the reconciliation results month by month in order. Fix flagged months before importing anything: it is far easier to resolve a difference against twelve tidy statements than inside a year of mixed postings.

Before you use the file

For recurring monthly imports, note that the column order never changes between files. Set the import mapping once, save it in your tool if it allows, and every later month from any bank follows the same path.

How to download a statement PDF from Public Bank

  1. Get the statement from Public Bank itself. Use the bank's website or mobile app and sign in with your usual credentials.
  2. Find where this bank files PDFs. Look for Statements, Documents, Mailbox or eStatements in the account menu; the label differs by bank and changes over time.
  3. Download the periods you need. Pick the month (or months) you need. For catch-up bookkeeping, download each month as its own PDF.
  4. Save the PDF unchanged. Use the Download / Download PDF option. If only a print view is offered, print the statement to PDF from the browser.
  5. Run the conversion here. Add the file to the converter on this page. You can add several statement PDFs at once for batch conversion.

These are the general steps most banks follow for statement downloads; exact menu labels vary by bank and change over time.

Tip: download statements as the periods close rather than in a year-end scramble; portals sometimes archive older periods behind request forms.

Questions and answers

How do I convert a Public Bank statement to CSV?

Get the PDF from Public Bank's statements area, upload it here, and download the converted a CSV file. The converter reads the transactions, standardizes the columns and verifies the totals against the statement before the file is ready.

What date and number formats do Public Bank statements use?

Expect the order printed on the statement itself dates and amounts with the grouping printed on the statement itself on a Public 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.

What does the reconciliation check do?

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.

Is the converted file ready to import into my accounting software?

The QuickBooks and Xero exports are laid out in the column order those tools import. The plain CSV and Excel exports suit everything else, including spreadsheet review before import.

My Public Bank statement has a running balance column. Is it used?

Yes — it is one of the strongest checks available. The converter walks the extracted amounts against the printed running balance row by row, so a single dropped or duplicated transaction is pinpointed instead of merely suspected.

What if two Public Bank statements cover overlapping days?

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.

Can I convert a full year of Public Bank statements at once?

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.

Does the converter work with Public Bank credit-card statements?

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.

Are my statement files kept?

No. Uploaded files and generated exports are stored only briefly to complete the download and are automatically deleted within 15 minutes.
