SVB + Wave: Bridge the Gap
Need to get your Silicon Valley Bank (now First Citizens) bank statement into Wave? 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, Description, Amount — Wave supports both single amount column and separate Income/Expense columns) for Wave import.
