IRIS + Trucking & Logistics: Faster Bank Import
Trucking companies manage fuel card transactions, load payments, equipment financing, and IFTA tax reporting — all requiring precise bank reconciliation. If you use IRIS for your accounting, you need a fast way to get bank statement data into the system.
BankScan AI for Trucking & Logistics Using IRIS
BankScan AI converts any bank statement PDF to CSV formatted for direct import into IRIS. Convert bank statements to Excel to match load payments, reconcile fuel card charges, and prepare IFTA quarterly tax filings accurately.
The Trucking & Logistics + IRIS Workflow
Trucking company owners reconcile load payments from brokers and shippers against rate confirmations, match fuel card transactions to individual trucks and routes, track equipment lease and loan payments, reconcile ELD (Electronic Logging Device) data against driver pay, and prepare IFTA quarterly fuel tax filings that require precise mileage-by-state calculations correlated with fuel purchases.
Key terms you'll encounter: rate confirmation, lumper fee, deadhead miles, IFTA decal.
How It Works
Upload any bank statement PDF
Supports all major banks. Saves 4-6 hours per quarter on IFTA tax preparation by automating fuel purchase extraction from bank statements, plus 2-3 hours per week on load payment reconciliation
AI formats for IRIS
Output as CSV with Date, Narrative, Debit, Credit — IRIS uses Narrative instead of Description and requires separate Debit/Credit columns — dates in DD/MM/YYYY.
Import and reconcile
In IRIS Accountancy Suite, open the client file, go to Bank > Import Transactions. Select the CSV file, map columns to Date, Narrative, Debit, Credit, and import. IRIS links bank transactions directly to tax computations, so imported statements feed into both bookkeeping and tax return preparation simultaneously.
