Investec + Xero: Bridge the Gap
Need to get your Investec Bank UK bank statement into Xero? Investec uses DD MMM YYYY and premium layout with separate banking and investment sections, each with their own column structures — which needs converting to CSV (Date, Description, Amount (single column, negative for debits) — or Date, Description, Debit, Credit as separate columns) for Xero import.

BankScan AI produces Excel and CSV files formatted for direct import into Xero's bank statement upload feature. Columns match Xero's expected date, description, and amount format.
