Based in Apia, Samoa, National Bank of Samoa provides statements to its customers as PDF documents in online banking. Upload the statement PDF below and download an Excel (.xlsx) workbook — extracted, normalized and reconciled first.
Converting to Excel gives you the National Bank of Samoa statement as a working document rather than a picture of one: every transaction on its own row, amounts as numbers you can sum, and the reconciliation outcome written into the file so the proof travels with the data.
The main use is month-end review, analysis and any job that starts with 'get it into a spreadsheet'. 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 National Bank of Samoa 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. 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 National Bank of Samoa 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. The closing zone carries the balances and any fees or interest summaries; it is the closing zone the reconciliation check answers to, and the first place to look when a conversion is flagged.
In Samoa, bookkeepers commonly work in MYOB; 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.
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 building workings on the workbook, glance at the summary block: it records the period, the opening and closing balances and the check result. If a month is flagged, resolve the marked rows in the sheet itself only after comparing them with the PDF — the PDF is the source document, and the workbook should end up agreeing with it, not the other way round.
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 National Bank of Samoa online banking, add it to the converter above, and take the an Excel (.xlsx) workbook 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 National Bank of Samoa 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.
No. The converter changes layout, not currency: figures stay in T exactly as National Bank of Samoa 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.
