About Wells Fargo statements
Wells Fargo statements can be downloaded as PDFs from wellsfargo.com under Statements & Documents, or via the Wells Fargo mobile app, with up to seven years of statement history retained online. The PDF starts with a 'Wells Fargo Bank, N.A.' header, the partial account number, the statement period written as 'Statement Period : January 1, 2026 - January 31, 2026', and an Activity Summary section showing beginning balance, deposits, withdrawals, and ending balance.
The core 'Transaction history' table uses six columns — Date, Check Number, Description, Deposits/Credits, Withdrawals/Debits, and Ending daily balance. Money in and money out occupy separate columns and are printed unsigned, so the sign is implied by placement; the Ending daily balance is printed only on the last transaction of each day, and there is no leading dollar character on amounts. Descriptions are detailed and often embed the original authorization date inside the description text itself, e.g. 'PURCHASE AUTHORIZED ON 01/15 STARBUCKS ...'.
ConvertStatement parses Wells Fargo PDFs entirely in memory, reconstructs the year for each MM/DD row from the statement period header, preserves the verbose original description verbatim, and exports CSV, Excel, OFX, or QBO files that import cleanly into QuickBooks, Xero, and Wave without manual sign-flipping.

Wells Fargo Checking (Transaction history) statement columns
| # | Statement column | What it contains | In the exported CSV |
|---|---|---|---|
| 01 | Date | MM/DD with no year; the year comes from the "Statement Period : January 1, 2026 - January 31, 2026" header. | Date |
| 02 | Check Number | Cheque number, filled only on paid cheques and blank on every other row. It does not get its own column in the exported CSV. | not exported |
| 03 | Description | Wells Fargo's verbose text, e.g. "Purchase authorized on 01/03 Trader Joe's #123 San Jose CA S461003456789012 Card 1234", wrapped across two or three lines and flattened into one field. | Description |
| 04 | Deposits/Credits | Money in sits in this column, printed unsigned — exported as a positive amount. | Amount |
| 05 | Withdrawals/Debits | Money out sits in this column, also printed unsigned — exported as a negative amount. | Amount |
| 06 | Ending daily balance | Printed only on the last transaction of each day, so most rows leave this cell empty. | Balance |
The two amount columns are positional — which column a figure lands in is what decides its sign, and PDF text extraction destroys that placement. ConvertStatement recovers the sign by tracking the running balance against the ending daily balance, seeded from the beginning balance.
To convert a Wells Fargo statement, upload the PDF above: ConvertStatement's dedicated Wells Fargo parser reads its MM/DD (year omitted in transaction rows; pulled from the statement period header) dates and USD amounts, extracts every transaction, and exports to CSV, Excel, OFX, or QBO — no AI, no manual cleanup.
Wells Fargo bank statements are issued by Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. in US dollars and use MM/DD dates on every transaction row — the year is intentionally left off the row and must be recovered from the statement period header, which is written as 'Statement Period : January 1, 2026 - January 31, 2026'. Amounts use the comma-thousands, dot-decimal convention (1,234.56). The Transaction history table has six columns — Date, Check Number, Description, Deposits/Credits, Withdrawals/Debits and Ending daily balance — and money in and money out sit in separate unsigned columns, so the sign is carried by column position rather than by a printed minus. Descriptions are uppercase and start with verbose prefixes such as 'PURCHASE AUTHORIZED ON', 'RECURRING PAYMENT AUTHORIZED ON', 'ATM WITHDRAWAL AUTHORIZED ON', 'ZELLE TO', and 'WT FED#'. ConvertStatement parses Wells Fargo PDFs in memory, reconstructs the year from the header, and exports clean CSV, Excel, OFX, or QBO ready for QuickBooks, Xero, or Wave import.

Known Wells Fargo parsing quirks
These are real layout details that make Wells Fargo PDFs different from other banks. Our dedicated parser handles each one explicitly so the exported CSV, Excel, OFX, or QBO is always correctly signed and dated.
- The real Transaction history table splits money in and money out into separate Deposits/Credits and Withdrawals/Debits columns and prints both unsigned — the sign lives in the column position, which PDF text extraction destroys, so it is recovered by balance tracking (some statements do print an explicit minus, and that sign is then treated as authoritative)
- The Ending daily balance column prints only on the last transaction of each day, so most rows carry one number or none — mid-day rows are deferred and reconciled against the next printed balance
- Year is omitted on every transaction row; parser reconstructs it from the long-form statement period header
- Detection uses the literal 'wells fargo' or the 'WF' abbreviation combined with 'account summary' and 'statement'
- Descriptions like 'PURCHASE AUTHORIZED ON 01/15 ...' embed the authorization date inside the description, which is kept verbatim
