Text PDFs, scans and password-protected files
A PDF that you download from online banking normally has a real text layer, and Satr can read its rows. You can test this by trying to select text in the PDF.
Scanned pages and photos saved as PDF are images. Satr does not do OCR, so it will tell you there is no text.
If the PDF is password-protected, Satr asks for the password and opens it locally; the password is not sent anywhere.
How Canada amounts and dates are handled
Statements in Canada usually show amounts in CAD ($) with a dot (.) as the decimal mark and a comma (,) as the thousands separator. You will usually see dates written as YYYY-MM-DD or MM/DD/YYYY.
Banks in the same country do not all use the same number format, so check the number format option in the preview. Some statements put the month first (MM/DD/YYYY); check the date order in the preview when the day is 12 or lower.
Satr recognised these number and date patterns in our own checks, and you can still change the number format and column roles before exporting.
Using the Excel file in QuickBooks, Sage 50, and Xero
Many people in Canada work with QuickBooks, Sage 50, and Xero. You can map the Excel or CSV columns in the import screen of those programs; Satr has no integration with them and does not claim any.
