QuickBooks CSV Format for Bank Transactions
A statement-to-CSV workflow should end with QuickBooks-ready columns, not just a spreadsheet that looks close.
Opening balance plus transactions must tie to the statement closing balance.
Missing dates, balance gaps, and import blockers stay visible before export.
Export stays blocked until the reviewed statement is safe to use.
