What data is extracted from ING statements?

When you convert your ING bank statement to Excel, the following key data points are extracted and structured into columns:

• Transaction Date: The date on which the transaction occurred (e.g., DD-MM-YYYY).
• Value Date: The effective date for interest calculations, if present.
• Description/Omschrijving: The details of the transaction, including payee, purpose, and reference.
• Debit (Af): Amounts debited from your account, represented as positive values in a dedicated column.
• Credit (Bij): Amounts credited to your account, represented as positive values in a dedicated column.
• Running Balance (Saldo): The account balance after each transaction.

The converter ensures that all numerical values are parsed correctly, ready for calculations in Excel. This separation of debit and credit into distinct columns simplifies financial analysis.

Using your ING statement in Excel

Converting your ING bank statement to Excel opens up many possibilities for financial management. Excel is a versatile tool for tracking, budgeting, and reconciliation.

Reconciliation and Analysis

With your ING data in Excel, you can perform account reconciliation more efficiently. You can use formulas like =SUMIF() to categorize expenses or income. For example, to sum all payments to a specific vendor:

=SUMIF(B:B,"*Vendor Name*",D:D) (assuming descriptions are in column B and debits in column D).

Pivot tables are particularly useful for summarizing large volumes of transactions. You can quickly group transactions by description, date, or category to identify spending patterns or recurring income. This helps in budget analysis and identifying discrepancies.

Budgeting and Forecasting

Exporting your ING transactions to Excel allows you to build custom budgeting models. You can categorize transactions, track spending against budget targets, and forecast future cash flow. Tools like conditional formatting can highlight overspending in specific categories.

Preparing for Accounting Software

While some accounting software like Exact or AFAS may have direct bank integrations, having your ING data in Excel provides flexibility. You can manipulate the data to match specific import templates required by various accounting packages. This is particularly useful if your software doesn't support direct import from ING or if you need to clean up data before import.

If you prefer to directly import into other systems, we also support converting ING statements to CSV or QuickBooks formats.

Does it work with scanned ING statements?

Yes, our converter is designed to work with scanned or image-based ING bank statements. It uses Optical Character Recognition (OCR) technology to extract text from images within the PDF. Even if your statement is a photograph or a poor-quality scan, the tool attempts to read the transaction details.

After OCR, the extracted transaction totals are automatically cross-referenced with the opening and closing balances printed on each page of your ING statement. This ensures the accuracy of the conversion and helps catch any potential reading errors.

Data Privacy and Security

Your privacy and data security are priorities. When you upload your ING bank statement, the file is processed on secure servers. We do not store your bank statements or transaction data. Once the conversion is complete and you have downloaded your Excel file, your uploaded PDF and the converted data are automatically deleted from our servers. We do not use your financial data for any training purposes or share it with third parties.

Why convert your ING PDF statement to Excel?

Manually re-typing transactions from a PDF into a spreadsheet is time-consuming and error-prone. Converting your ING statement automatically saves significant time and improves data accuracy.
