Why QIF to CSV

QIF is readable by eye but useless in a spreadsheet: each field sits on its own line with a letter prefix. This converter turns every record into one row with the fields in columns, so you can sort, filter and sum.

Using the CSV

  1. Columns: Date, Description, Amount, Debit, Credit, Check number, Memo.
  2. Dates are ISO. Amounts are signed, with Debit and Credit split out as well.
  3. Choose Excel under Other formats for a workbook with real dates and numbers.
  4. QBO, OFX and QFX are available from the same screen for accounting software.

How the conversion works

1. Read

Each record's D, T, P, M and N lines become date, amount, payee, memo and check number. Quicken's date shorthand and credit card files are understood.

2. Check

Rows without a readable date and amount are counted and reported, never silently dropped. Totals in and out and the period are shown so you can compare them with the source before importing.

3. Write

UTF-8 CSV with ISO dates, a signed amount column plus debit and credit columns, and quoted fields.

Starting from a PDF statement? The statement converter reads it and checks every row against the printed balance.
