Knab statements to Excel: what you get

The .xlsx file carries the full Knab statement in spreadsheet form: transactions in reading order, credits and debits in their own columns, the running balance preserved, and — when you convert several PDFs at once — one sheet per statement plus a combined sheet.

The main use is building schedules and workings that cite the statement line by line. Statements from Netherlands 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.

Reconciliation is what separates conversion from copying. Once the Knab 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. 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.

Two habits make Knab statements easier to work with. First, convert the issued PDF rather than a portal screen print — print views paginate differently and can drop the balance lines the check needs. 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 Netherlands, bookkeepers commonly work in Exact Online and Moneybird; 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.

Keeping evidence with the conversion

File three things together for every {bank} month: the statement PDF, the converted file, and the reconciliation outcome. Anyone reviewing the work later — a partner, an auditor, a tax adviser — can re-perform the month from that trio without asking you anything.

Before you use the file

Sort and filter the Excel export freely — but keep an untouched copy of the file as downloaded. Workings belong in copies; the downloaded workbook, with its summary block, is the version that proves what the statement said.

How to download a statement PDF from Knab

  1. Sign in and open the right account. Use the bank's website or mobile app and sign in with your usual credentials.
  2. Pick the account and the month. Most banks file statements under the account's Documents, Statements or eStatements tab rather than on the summary screen.
  3. Work month by month. Pick the month (or months) you need. For catch-up bookkeeping, download each month as its own PDF.
  4. Download or print to PDF. 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. Upload the PDF above and check the reconciliation result before you download the converted file.

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.

Questions and answers

How do I convert a Knab statement to Excel?

Download the statement PDF from Knab online banking, upload it to the converter on this page, and download the an Excel (.xlsx) workbook. The transactions are extracted, put into the same standard columns used for every bank, and checked against the statement's balances first.

What date and number formats do Knab statements use?

Like most banks in Netherlands, Knab prints 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). Conversion normalizes dates to an unambiguous form in the output while leaving the figures themselves untouched.

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.

How far back can I get Knab statements?

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.

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 Knab 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 Knab 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 Knab 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.

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.
