From PDF to reviewed export.
For bookkeepers, accountants and anyone preparing statement data: find the next step for your PDF, extracted records or saved export.

START WITH THE SOURCE
A converted row still needs a review.
Check the selected pages and compare dates, descriptions and signed amounts beside the original PDF. Investigate missing records, repeated rows and unexplained balance differences before exporting.
