TymeBank is a bank based in Johannesburg, South Africa. Its account statements are issued as PDFs through online and mobile banking. Upload the statement PDF below and download an Excel (.xlsx) workbook — extracted, normalized and reconciled first.
Converting to Excel gives you the TymeBank 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.
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 TymeBank statement, then walk the running balances row by row. 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.
Two habits make TymeBank 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 South Africa, bookkeepers commonly work in Sage, Xero and QuickBooks; 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.
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 workbook will feed a model or a client file, paste values rather than linking cells back to a working copy. The converted figures are deliberately plain — real dates, real numbers — so they paste cleanly, and the reconciliation summary gives the reader the provenance in one glance.
These are the general steps most banks follow for statement downloads; exact menu labels vary by bank and change over time.
Tip: a statement that covers a partial period (account opened or closed mid-month) still converts and reconciles; its balances simply anchor a shorter chain.
Download the statement PDF from TymeBank 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.
Expect the order printed on the statement itself dates and amounts with the grouping printed on the statement itself on a TymeBank 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 R exactly as TymeBank 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.
