Convert bank statements for Quicken
Statement PDFs to QFX — Quicken's own flavour of OFX, imported like a bank download.
QFX, institution prompts, and old statements
Quicken's native import is QFX — OFX in the specific dialect Quicken requires. Imports carry the transaction dates, payees and signed amounts straight into the register. One honest caveat: Quicken associates imports with financial institutions, and a converted file doesn't come from your bank's server, so some Quicken versions show an institution prompt on first import. Point it at the matching account and subsequent imports are routine.
The classic Quicken job is history: years of statements from before downloads existed, or from accounts a bank no longer serves online. Scanned paper statements convert through OCR with the same balance verification as fresh PDFs, so a decade of registers can be rebuilt without retyping — each statement proven against its own printed totals first.
