MT940 is a standardized bank format that all accounting systems can import.

With our converter, you can convert your CSV or PDF account statements that you have exported from your bank portal (scans can only be read via OCR if they are of perfect quality) into an MT940 file and import them into your accounting program.

(you can access our main page here: https://ckonverter.de/.

Tax consultants can find our prices here: https://ckonverter.de/preise/ .
Other entrepreneurs and interested parties can request an individual price via the contact form if they have to convert bank statements once. )

In addition, you can also convert your PDF account statements or sales lists into CSV files for further evaluations or convert MT940 files into CSV files.

The following questions must be clarified before you drag the file into the converter:
- Is the client number to be entered? Possibly important for billing and identification of the
converted file.
- Does the bank statement to be converted contain the IBAN? If not, please enter the IBAN in the field
Enter IBAN (entry optional - if IBAN is not in the file and no entry is made, a fictitious replacement IBAN is generated
and used.)
- Starting balance: Can our converter take the starting balance from the account statement? If not, enter
the starting balance manually. (No entry for credit card)

To clarify questions 2 (IBAN) and 3 (starting balance), we recommend dragging the file into the dropdown field as a test and checking whether the data is listed.

You can now see the start and end balance in the messages at the bottom. Please compare it with your bank statement. If no IBAN is recognized, our "fictitious IBAN" will be used. You can enter this in DATEV.

For DATEV users:
In DATEV Accounting, please create a bank with the corresponding IBAN in the bank account turnover settings.
Please select "Not listed program" as the source of account transactions and "MT940" as the file format. Then check the file with "Check entries".

You can find more DATEV information in the other step-by-step instructions.
