How to get the PDF bank statement (extracto bancario) from Banco Santander
Ask Banco Santander online banking for the bank statement (extracto bancario) 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
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.
A scan or a photo of a paper statement has no text layer, and Satr has no OCR, so it cannot read it. Download the PDF again from online banking instead.
Locked with a password? Type it into Satr when asked. The password is used on your device to unlock the file and goes nowhere else.
Reading Spain amounts and dates
Amounts in Spain statements are typically shown in EUR (€), using a comma (,) for decimals and a dot (.) to separate thousands. You will usually see dates written as DD/MM/YYYY.
Because the decimal mark is a comma, the preview shows whether Satr chose the right number format, and you can switch it.
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
If you use ContaSOL, A3, and Holded, open the exported XLSX or CSV and match its columns in the program's import screen. There is no connection between Satr and these tools.
