Charles Schwab + Wave: Bridge the Gap
Need to get your Charles Schwab Bank bank statement into Wave? Charles Schwab uses MM/DD/YYYY and combined statement with separate banking and brokerage sections; checking shows Date, Description, Withdrawals, Deposits, and Balance — which needs converting to CSV (Date, Description, Amount — Wave supports both single amount column and separate Income/Expense columns) for Wave import.
