When your Banco Santander statement arrives as a scan or a photo of the page rather than a clean export, the numbers on it are just pixels until they are extracted. Scanned and photographed statements arrive as images, not machine-readable tables. The engine reads text from every pixel with OCR, then applies the same automatic layout detection it uses for clean files. The transaction table is pulled out row by row, from the first data column to the printed closing balance. Once the numbers are read, the system verifies the running balance line by line against the statement's own ending figure, flagging any row that does not add up so you can review it rather than starting over.
Whether you need your Banco Santander statement in Excel, CSV or QBO, the underlying extracted table stays the same; only the export step differs. After verification, the export step lets you map columns to the exact layout your downstream tool expects. Choose Excel for a full spreadsheet, CSV for a plain text ledger, or QBO for direct import. You control which columns appear and in what order, so the output drops straight into your reconciliation workflow without post-processing.
