What to expect from your EastWest Bank statement
Customers of EastWest Bank in Philippines typically get their bank statement as a PDF, and that PDF is what Satr reads.
You can find it online at eastwestbanker.com.
How to get the PDF bank statement from EastWest Bank
Ask EastWest Bank online banking for the bank statement of the account and period you need and download it as a PDF. If a PDF is not offered, the branch or the bank's support can usually provide one.
Which PDFs work
PDF statements generated by a bank system contain selectable text. Those are the files Satr is built for.
A PDF made by scanning paper, or a screenshot saved as PDF, holds pictures only. Satr cannot read pictures, so get the original PDF from online banking.
If the PDF is password-protected, Satr asks for the password and opens it locally; the password is not sent anywhere.
Reading Philippines amounts and dates
In Philippines, amounts are normally written in PHP (₱); the decimal mark is a dot (.) and the thousands separator is a comma (,). You will usually see dates written as MM/DD/YYYY or DD-Mon-YYYY.
Some statements put the month first (MM/DD/YYYY); check the date order in the preview when the day is 12 or lower. Dates with month names, such as 01-Apr-2025, are recognised in English; month names in other languages may need a manual check.
In our checks Satr read these patterns correctly; the mapper still lets you switch the number format if a file differs.
Importing into accounting software
Many people in Philippines work with QuickBooks 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.
