Before you export

  • 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.

Is QIF still used?

Yes, some older and open-source finance tools still support QIF imports.

Can I convert scanned PDFs to QIF?

Scanned PDFs may use local image-to-text for the first 8 pages, but you should review the rows carefully before exporting.

Does the QIF include balances?

QIF is transaction-focused; balances may be used for review but are not always represented the same way in every importer.

Can I export OFX instead?

Yes. StatementForge also supports OFX export from reviewed rows.
