Commercial Bank of Ceylon is a bank based in Colombo, Sri Lanka. 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.
The .xlsx file carries the full Commercial Bank of Ceylon 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 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 Commercial Bank of Ceylon 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.
Before converting, spend thirty seconds on the Commercial Bank of Ceylon document itself: confirm the period matches the month you are closing, note the opening and closing balances, and scan for the period's largest transactions. 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 Sri Lanka, bookkeepers commonly work in QuickBooks and Xero; 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.
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.
When several months arrive as separate sheets, resist merging them into one long list until each month has passed its own check. Merged catch-up files hide which month owns a difference; per-statement sheets keep the chain visible, and the combined sheet is there when you need the whole period at once.
These are the general steps most banks follow for statement downloads; exact menu labels vary by bank and change over time.
Tip: where the portal shows a 'final' or 'corrected' version of a statement, convert that one — reissued statements supersede the original figures.
Get the PDF from Commercial Bank of Ceylon's statements area, upload it here, and download the converted an Excel (.xlsx) workbook. The converter reads the transactions, standardizes the columns and verifies the totals against the statement before the file is ready.
Expect the order printed on the statement itself dates and amounts with the grouping printed on the statement itself on a Commercial Bank of Ceylon 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.
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.
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.
Yes. Credit-card statements use a Previous Balance / New Balance layout, which the converter reads as well; purchases are positive and payments are negative, and the same totals check applies.
Date, Description, Amount, Debit, Credit and Balance — the same normalized columns for every bank, so a Commercial Bank of Ceylon file and a file from any other bank in Sri Lanka can be imported and reviewed the same way.
The conversion is flagged, and the rows whose running balance disagrees with the statement are marked with the expected and printed figures. Nothing is silently adjusted — you see exactly where the statement and the extraction part company.
No. Uploaded files and generated exports are stored only briefly to complete the download and are automatically deleted within 15 minutes.
