The OFX fields that are generated

Honest operating limits
Financial files still deserve a human check.
QBO, OFX, and QIF exports are generated from the rows you review in StatementForge.
Accounting programs can be strict about dates, account identifiers, and opening balances, so review the import preview before posting.
If the PDF does not expose an account ID, StatementForge uses a generated ID in the export file.

Personal finance apps
Use OFX when your app supports importing Open Financial Exchange files.
Bank download replacement
