Why Contractors & Freelancers Need Excel Format
As contractor, converting bank statements to Excel saves hours of manual data entry. Microsoft Excel (.xlsx) is the most versatile output format — ideal for sorting, filtering, pivot tables, and custom formulas on your bank data. Saves 1-2 hours per month on expense tracking and categorisation, plus 3-4 hours at year-end when preparing records for self-assessment
