Tide + Clear Books: Bridge the Gap
Need to get your Tide Business Banking bank statement into Clear Books? Tide uses DD/MM/YYYY and single Amount column with category tags, invoice references, and running balance — which needs converting to CSV (Date, Description, Money in, Money out — Clear Books uses separate columns for credits and debits) for Clear Books import.
