SVB + Sage: Bridge the Gap
Need to get your Silicon Valley Bank (now First Citizens) bank statement into Sage? SVB uses MM/DD/YYYY and commercial banking format with detailed wire transfer sections showing Originator, Beneficiary, and Reference fields alongside standard Date/Description/Amount columns — 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 SVB 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. SVB statements are common among tech startups and VC-backed companies. BankScan AI handles SVB's wire-heavy transaction layout with full reference preservation.
