Bank of Ireland + Sage: Bridge the Gap
Need to get your Bank of Ireland UK bank statement into Sage? Bank of Ireland uses DD/MM/YYYY and two-column Debit and Credit layout with Balance column, following Irish banking conventions — which needs converting to CSV (Date, Details/Reference, Paid in, Paid out — Sage requires separate debit and credit columns rather than a single signed amount) for Sage import.

BankScan AI's CSV output is compatible with Sage's bank statement import. The date format, transaction descriptions, and amount columns are mapped automatically. Bank of Ireland UK statements use a layout common to Irish banking formats. BankScan AI parses both GB and NI account statement variants.
