Dext + CPAs (Certified Public Accountants): Faster Bank Import
CPAs managing multiple client engagements need to process bank statements from dozens of different US banks for tax preparation, audit support, and financial reviews. If you use Dext for your accounting, you need a fast way to get bank statement data into the system.
BankScan AI for CPAs (Certified Public Accountants) Using Dext
BankScan AI converts any bank statement PDF to CSV formatted for direct import into Dext. BankScan AI converts any US bank statement PDF to Excel instantly — supporting Chase, Bank of America, Wells Fargo, Citi, and 30+ US banks for seamless client work.
The CPAs (Certified Public Accountants) + Dext Workflow
CPAs receive client bank statements for tax return preparation, financial statement compilation and review, and audit procedures. They reconcile bank balances to general ledger accounts, trace transactions for substantive testing during audits, and prepare bank reconciliation workpapers. During tax season, they process hundreds of client statements to verify income and identify deductible expenses.
Key terms you'll encounter: bank confirmation, reconciling items, substantive testing, adjusted trial balance.
