Convert the statement in LedgerBox
Upload the PDF, let the balances reconcile, and review anything that came back flagged. This part is the same whatever you plan to do with the rows afterwards.
-
Download a CSV or an Excel workbook
Both carry the same five columns: date, description, debit, credit, balance. The layouts are published, so you know what you are mapping before you start.

Import it in Xero and map the columns
Xero's own import screen is where the mapping happens, and it is a one-time setup per bank account rather than a per-statement chore.

Xero FAQ
Does LedgerBox integrate with Xero?
No. There is one posting integration and it is QuickBooks Online. Nothing in LedgerBox signs in to Xero, posts to Xero, or syncs with Xero, and no part of the product is waiting on a Xero connection you have not noticed.
So how do I get a statement into Xero today?
Convert it in LedgerBox, download the CSV or the Excel workbook, and import that in Xero, mapping our columns to Xero's in its own import screen. The LedgerBox column layouts are published so the mapping is a known quantity.
Is a Xero export planned?
Yes. LedgerBox plans to add a specific Xero file. Use CSV or Excel until that file is available.
Clean rows first, then import them anywhere.
Upload a document and download the export in under a minute. No card required.
