How TaxStatement prepares your working papers.
A deterministic, privacy-first 3-step workflow designed for freelancers, accountants, and small business owners.
Step 1: Inspect & Map
Upload your statement CSV or limited text PDF. Map your columns to standard fields. TaxStatement checks that negative/positive signs align with inflow/outflow definitions before any transaction is stored.
Step 2: Balance Check & Duplicate Detection
Provide your statement opening and closing balances to verify mathematical integrity. The engine checks running balances and marks suspicious duplicate transactions with a flag (⚑). Nothing is automatically deleted without your confirmation.
Step 3: Human Review & Audit Export
Label transactions with bookkeeping categories, mark reviewed rows, or flag exclusions. When done, download a standardized CSV or formulas-safe Excel spreadsheet with complete source audit traceability.
