Nationwide + Wave: Bridge the Gap
Need to get your Nationwide Building Society bank statement into Wave? Nationwide uses DD MMM YYYY and single Payments and Receipts column with transaction type codes and running balance — which needs converting to CSV (Date, Description, Amount — Wave supports both single amount column and separate Income/Expense columns) for Wave import.
