Wema Bank is a bank based in Lagos, Nigeria. Its account statements are issued as PDFs through online and mobile banking. Upload the statement PDF below and download a QuickBooks-ready CSV (Date, Description, Amount) — extracted, normalized and reconciled first.
QuickBooks wants a simple three-column file, and this export produces it from the Wema Bank PDF: date, description, signed amount — ready for the Banking upload screen without deleting balance columns or splitting debits and credits yourself.
The main use is uploading statement transactions through QuickBooks' Banking screen. 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.
Every Wema Bank conversion is audited by the document it came from. The extracted transactions are totalled against the printed opening and closing balances and checked row by row against the running balance column where one is printed. Agreement to the cent means the extraction matches the document. Disagreement means the conversion is flagged — the result says so plainly, with the differing rows marked.
A Wema 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. 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 Nigeria, bookkeepers commonly work in Sage and QuickBooks; the Excel and CSV exports from this converter are the files those tools import, and the QuickBooks 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.
If the upload reports rows it cannot read, check for a edited file: the CSV must keep its header row and comma structure exactly as downloaded. Re-download a clean copy rather than repairing one by hand.
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.
Get the PDF from Wema Bank's statements area, upload it here, and download the converted a QuickBooks-ready CSV (Date, Description, Amount). The converter reads the transactions, standardizes the columns and verifies the totals against the statement before the file is ready.
Wema Bank statements generally print dates as the order printed on the statement itself and amounts with the grouping printed on the statement itself. The converter reads the figures as printed and normalizes the output columns the same way for every bank.
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.
No. The converter changes layout, not currency: figures stay in ₦ exactly as Wema Bank 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.
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.
No. Uploaded files and generated exports are stored only briefly to complete the download and are automatically deleted within 15 minutes.
