Statement against ledger

Compare the statement with the spreadsheet, one row at a time.

A converted ledger is only as good as the check you do on it. Instead of scrolling a PDF and hunting for the matching line, open the result beside the page: click a row, the statement moves to that page and boxes the figure, and the two readings sit in the same window.

Who it's for

Credit analysts spreading statements

You compare deposits, average balance and NSFs against the paper. The comparison should not cost more than the spread.

Who it's for

Bookkeepers reconciling a client

The ledger has to agree with the statement line for line before the reconciliation will clear.

Who it's for

Reviewers checking someone else's file

You were handed a workbook and a PDF. You need to spot which rows were typed from the paper and which were not.

What this actually fixes

Two windows, one pair of eyes

Switching between a PDF reader and Excel on a twelve-month file is where the comparison stops being done and becomes a spot check.

Searching for the right page

Knowing that a deposit is wrong does not tell you which of the 90 pages it is printed on. Finding it is most of the work.

No record of what was compared

A workbook that was checked and a workbook that was not look identical when the file is handed on.

What comes out

One upload, one set of compute-ready outputs — not a screenshot of a table.

Click a row, land on the page

Selecting a cell moves the statement to the page it came from and draws a box around the printed figure, at the size it was printed.

Both readings in view

The cell holds what was read; the page shows what was printed. When they differ, the difference is what you are looking at, not something you have to remember.

Arithmetic beside the comparison

Each row also shows whether the running balance still ties. A figure that matches the page but breaks the balance is a different problem from one that matches neither.

Marks that travel with the file

Rows you confirm or correct carry that mark into the exported workbook and into the PDF review sheet, with the reviewer and the time.

A count, not a score

The report says how many rows were compared, how many a person touched and how many nobody has looked at yet. That is a fact about the work done, not a claim about the document.

Works from any page

The comparison is not limited to page one. Jump to the page you are reading and the ledger scrolls to the rows from that page.

How it works

STEP 1

Bring the statement in

Upload the PDF or scan and let it convert. You keep the source page mapping, which is what makes the comparison possible.

STEP 2

Work row by row

Start at the first flagged row. Compare the printed figure with the converted one, confirm it, and move to the next unresolved row rather than the next row.

STEP 3

Use the keyboard

Arrow keys move between cells and the page follows. Tab crosses columns, Enter opens a cell for editing, Escape puts it back.

STEP 4

Export with the check attached

The workbook keeps a sheet recording which rows were confirmed, which were corrected, and which no one has opened.

Every plan, every audience

  • One file = one credit, up to 150 pages on a paid pack
  • No merged cells; numbers arrive as numbers
  • Every extracted value traces back to its source page
  • Files shredded after conversion, never used for training
  • A fresh file allowance every billing cycle; cancel anytime
  • An optional hash-bound certificate anyone can verify for free

Questions

Do I have to compare every row?+

You decide. The tool narrows the field — arithmetic breaks, second-reader disagreements and rows that could not be read are listed first — but it never marks a row as checked on your behalf. A row nobody opened stays unmarked in the export.

What does the comparison show for a scanned statement?+

The scanned image, cropped to the figure. If the scan is crooked or faint, the box may include neighbouring text; that is usually enough to read the figure, and if it is not, the row stays flagged.

Can I compare two files, such as this year and last?+

This page compares one statement with its own conversion. Comparing two separate documents — a statement against a ledger export, for instance — is a different job and is not something this page claims to do.

Is the PDF kept after I close the page?+

The file is destroyed after conversion. The result stays in your own account scope for 24 hours so reopening the same statement does not re-run it, then it is deleted. Nothing is shared between accounts.
