How Wave uses this file

Wave imports transaction rows for categorization and reconciliation. Keep deposits positive and withdrawals negative unless your account type requires the reverse.

If you are converting a credit card statement, review signs before uploading.

Frequently asked questions

Can Wave import a PDF statement?

Wave imports transaction files, not PDFs. Convert the statement to CSV first.

Can I edit rows before upload?

Yes. Open the CSV in a spreadsheet, review rows, then upload it into Wave.
