Dext + Management Accounts: Complete Workflow
Preparing for management accounts and using Dext? Preparing monthly management accounts requires categorising all bank transactions by cost centre, project, or department. PDF statements make this analysis difficult. BankScan AI bridges the gap between your bank's PDF statements and Dext's import feature.
BankScan AI → Dext for Management Accounts
Convert bank statement PDFs to CSV formatted for Dext import. Convert bank statements to Excel spreadsheets for fast categorisation, pivot table analysis, and management reporting. Save hours of manual data extraction.
How It Works
Upload your bank statement PDF
Supports all major banks. Upload Monthly, covering the previous calendar month; some businesses also require quarterly board packs with 3-month rolling data of statements.
AI formats for Dext
Output as CSV with N/A — Dext is not a direct import target. BankScan AI outputs feed into the same accounting software that Dext publishes to (Xero, QBO, Sage). — dates in DD/MM/YYYY (for onward import to accounting software).
Import and use for management accounts
Upload into Dext and use the reconciled data for management accounts.
Supported Banks
BankScan AI works with all major UK and US banks, including:
Dext + Management Accounts Features

- BankScan AI and Dext work together in your workflow: use BankScan AI for bank statement PDFs, Dext for receipts and invoices, then import both into your accounting software
Common Import Issues

Dext Import for Management Accounts
Management accounts are typically expected within 10-15 working days of month-end to be useful for decision-making; stale data loses its management value
