Data extracted from Bank Pekao statements

Bank Pekao statements present structured account details alongside transaction tables. Standard Polish banking layouts separate the booking date (data księgowania) from the effective transaction date (data operacji). Our extraction engine captures both values and structures them for accounting workflows:

• Transaction Date: Formatted as DD/MM/YYYY to align with Polish and European accounting standards in Xero.
• Payee and Narration: Consolidates the counterparty name, IBAN account numbers, and payment titles (tytuł przelewu) into clean description strings.
• Reference Numbers: Captures transfer IDs and split payment indicators (mechanizm podzielonej płatności / MPP) where present.
• Transaction Amounts: Extracts payments and receipts into dedicated debit/credit columns or a signed amount column formatted in PLN (Polish Złoty).
• Running Balance: Validates line-by-line figures against opening (saldo początkowe) and closing (saldo końcowe) balances on the statement header.

If you prefer raw tabular output for custom spreadsheets instead of accounting imports, you can also use our Bank Pekao to Excel converter or export directly via the Bank Pekao to CSV converter.

Preparing Bank Pekao data for the Xero reconciliation screen

Xero requires a specific column layout to map bank statement lines properly during manual imports. Standard Bank Pekao PDF exports often wrap long transfer titles across multiple lines or combine payment references with counterparty addresses, which breaks basic copy-paste attempts.

The converter standardizes your Pekao data into Xero's preferred header format: Date, Amount, Payee, Description, Reference, and Check Number. When you upload the CSV into Xero:

• One-click field mapping: Xero automatically detects the column headers without requiring you to manually reassign fields during each import.
• Sign handling: Outgoing transfers, card debits, and ZUS/US tax payments are formatted with negative values, while incoming customer receipts remain positive, matching Xero's single-amount ingestion standard.
• Rule matching: Because transaction descriptions remain consistent and clean, your predefined Xero bank rules match suppliers, VAT categories, and customer invoices automatically on the Reconcile tab.

For financial teams working across multiple banking platforms in the region, BankStmtConverter supports institutions listed on our Poland bank statement converter index and across all supported banks.

Handling scanned and image-based Bank Pekao statements

Accounting firms frequently receive archived or photographed PDF statements from clients who cannot access original digital files. BankStmtConverter incorporates optical character recognition (OCR) trained on Polish financial documents and multilingual character sets, correctly parsing Polish diacritics (ą, ć, ę, ł, ń, ó, ś, ź, ż).

During extraction, the software performs an automatic mathematical audit: it sums every extracted transaction against the statement's printed opening and closing balances. If a scan is skewed, blurred, or missing a corner digit, the system detects the discrepancy before you import unverified data into Xero.

Data security and file privacy

Your financial files contain confidential corporate information. BankStmtConverter processes Bank Pekao statements over encrypted 256-bit SSL connections. Uploaded PDF files and generated CSV exports are permanently deleted from processing servers shortly after conversion. Your records are never stored long-term, sold, or used to train artificial intelligence models.
