Phantom Balance Rows on Every Page
Standard Bank statements repeat "Balance brought forward" and "Balance carried forward" rows on every page. Without filtering, these appear as phantom transactions in your export, inflating your transaction count. We remove them automatically.

Separate Credit & Debit Columns
Standard Bank of South Africa statements use separate Credit and Debit columns in some formats, while others use a single Amount column with signs. Treating one layout like the other leads to wrong amounts or flipped signs. We automatically detect which layout is used and normalize the output.
Fees in a Separate Column
SBSA statements include a separate column for fees and charges. We detect and extract these fees correctly, separating them from the transaction amount when needed.
