NatWest + Wave: Bridge the Gap
Need to get your NatWest Bank bank statement into Wave? NatWest uses DD/MM/YYYY and separate Paid In and Paid Out columns with a Balance column on the right — which needs converting to CSV (Date, Description, Amount — Wave supports both single amount column and separate Income/Expense columns) for Wave import.
