Masraf Al Rayan, based in Doha, Qatar, delivers account statements as PDFs through its online banking portal. Upload the statement PDF below and download a CSV file — extracted, normalized and reconciled first.
CSV strips the Masraf Al Rayan statement down to portable data: no formatting, no merged cells, just the transactions in a standard column order that imports cleanly into tools that have never heard of this converter.
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.
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 Masraf Al Rayan statement, then walk the running balances row by row. 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 Masraf Al Rayan 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. 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 Qatar, bookkeepers commonly work in Zoho Books; 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.
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.
Keep the downloaded CSV unchanged as your archive copy and do any editing in your accounting tool after import. A pristine CSV plus the statement PDF is the pair an auditor wants: source document, and the exact data taken from it.
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.
Save the statement as a PDF from Masraf Al Rayan online banking, add it to the converter above, and take the a CSV file it produces. Extraction, column normalization and the reconciliation check all happen before the download is offered.
Masraf Al Rayan 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.
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 QAR exactly as Masraf Al Rayan 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.
