CSV bank imports into TurboCASH
This should work seamlessly with any Bank CSV import. I show it here using FNB Bank, TurboCASH 5.3 and Copilot (and other AI engines).
Note that the TurboCASH CSV import feature requires the CSV to be {tab} secifically formatted according to the TurboCASH's specifications.
I have sucessfuly tried it with Paypal Activity, FNB and ABSA Statements

Which bank CSV files can be converted for this process?
The example shows FNB, but the same process can be used for other bank or statement exports such as PayPal Activity and ABSA, as long as the data is mapped into the required TurboCASH layout.
What should I ask Copilot or another AI tool to do?
Use the Chat at top of page OR Start a new chat, upload your CSV bank statement, and ask it to convert the file into the TurboCASH tab-delimited format using the sample output and placeholder fields shown on this page.
