What's the difference between OFX and other formats like CSV for Bank of Ireland statements?+
OFX is a structured format specifically designed for financial data exchange, often containing metadata beyond just transaction lines (e.g., account type, bank ID). This allows for direct import into many accounting programs where it's recognized as a bank feed. CSV, while highly versatile, is a plain text format requiring manual column mapping in most software, offering less automation but greater flexibility for custom analysis. OFX aims for direct integration, while CSV is for generic data transfer.
