About Bank of Ireland statements
Bank of Ireland is one of Ireland's oldest banks and you reach its statements through the 365 Online service. You grab the statement PDF from 365 Online or the app, under Statements — same as you would for any branch-based account.
Bank of Ireland writes each line as a short narrative — a 365 transfer, a direct debit, a card payment — with the amount in euro. That's exactly the detail that gets scrambled when you paste a PDF into a spreadsheet, and exactly what the converter preserves, column by column.
Amounts stay in EUR (euro) and dates keep the DD/MM/YYYY order — no quiet day/month swaps on the way out. Scanned or photographed PDFs work too: OCR reads them into the same columns, and the running balance is checked before anything downloads.
From there it's a normal Zoho Books import: the heavy lifting of reading the PDF is already done.
Why people convert Bank of Ireland to Zoho Books
If you're reconciling a client's Bank of Ireland account in Zoho Books, you'll hit months with no live feed. A converted CSV imports straight into Banking → Import Statement, so the gaps fill in without retyping.
It also saves the back-and-forth at year end. Instead of asking a client for a CSV their Bank of Ireland login may not even offer, you take the PDF they already have and convert it, so the numbers in Zoho Books match the statement line for line.
Import a Bank of Ireland statement into Zoho Books
Zoho Books imports a CSV — there's no separate Zoho file, so you use the clean CSV.

- Upload the CSV and map Date / Description / Amount.
- Import, then categorise the lines.
The totals are checked first
The totals are checked before you download. If a row is missing, the statement gets flagged right here — so a gap shows up before it reaches Zoho Books or your client, not after.
