RBS + Sage: Bridge the Gap
Need to get your Royal Bank of Scotland bank statement into Sage? RBS uses DD/MM/YYYY and separate Paid In and Paid Out columns matching NatWest's layout with minor header differences — 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.
How BankScan AI Converts RBS for Sage
BankScan AI's CSV output is compatible with Sage's bank statement import. The date format, transaction descriptions, and amount columns are mapped automatically. RBS statements share a similar format to NatWest. BankScan AI handles both with the same high accuracy.

Sage requires separate Paid in/Paid out columns — a single Amount column will fail. Also rejects imports where the date column contains time stamps.
