Step 1 - Enable Bank Statement as an Extraction Type
Go to Entity Settings → Features.
Under Document Extraction Types, toggle Bank Statement ON.
Once enabled, Tofu will extract key details from every uploaded bank statement, including account numbers, dates, transaction details, amounts, and references.
Step 2 - Upload a Bank Statement
Go to the Source Documents column.
Click Upload document and select your bank statement file.
⚠️ Important for Large Bank Statements
If your bank statement has more than 60 pages, Tofie may ask you to confirm extraction before processing continues.
What to do:
Upload the bank statement as usual.
Go to the extraction panel.
If prompted, re-extract the file or confirm you want Tofu to process the large file.
Review the extraction as normal.
This prevents very large bank statements from being processed by accident and ensures accurate extraction.
💡 Recommended Upload Methods:
📧Email Integration — Send bank statements straight to your Tofu inbox.
☁️Cloud Storage — Connect Google Drive, SharePoint or Dropbox so uploaded statements sync automatically.
Either option lets Tofu receive documents without repeated manual uploads.
Step 3 - Review the Extracted Data
Go to the Extractions column and verify:
Header Details:
Bank Account
Currency
Statement dates
Transaction Table:
Date
Description (click to expand full details)
Debit / Credit amounts
Balance (if available)
Reference
Currency (transaction-level)
Contact
Multi-Currency Notes
Assign a Currency to each transaction row if the statement contains multiple currencies.
If no currency is selected for a row, Tofu defaults to the statement’s header currency.
This ensures each transaction reflects the correct currency when exported.
AI Contact Suggestions:
Tofie can suggest a Contact name based on transaction details and it learns from your previously reviewed bank transactions, so suggestions get more accurate over time. You can always edit these before exporting.
💡 Edit header details or line items directly in Tofu. Click Save Draft before leaving the page. Click Verify once the data is accurate.
Step 4 - Export the Bank Statement

Click Export.
