The Problem
Amex statements don't import directly into QuickBooks (unlike QBO bank feeds). Standard method: statement PDF → CSV/Excel → import → match. Manual typing takes hours and mistakes happen. Our free converter finishes the first step in 30 seconds.Step 1: Convert Statement to Excel/CSV
- Open the tool → Amex PDF upload do
- Download the Excel file (Date, Description, Debit, Credit)
- Excel me File → Save As → CSV format chuno
Step 2: Import into QuickBooks Online
- QuickBooks Online → Banking → File Upload
- CSV file upload do
- Column mapping: Date → Date, Description → Description, Debit → Debit, Credit → Credit
- Credit card account chuno (Amex liability account)
- Import karke transactions ko review do
Step 3: Reconcile
- Accounting → Reconcile → Amex account chuno
- Statement ending date + ending balance daalo
- Har transaction match do (difference $0 tak)
- Finish do
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Reversed Debit/Credit mapping — signs can flip in QuickBooks; always check the preview. Duplicate imports — import once per month. Fees as separate entries — fees are debits on the statement; don't skip them

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can I import Amex CSV directly into QuickBooks?
A: Amex's native CSV only gives 90 days of data and its column names don't match QBO. PDF conversion gives the whole statement in clean columns — import mapping becomes easy.
Q: Why is my imported transaction showing as expense instead of payment?
A: QuickBooks import me sign convention reverse ho sakta hai. Mapping step me Debit/Credit columns swap karke preview check do.
