Convert transactions to CSV

What does convert transactions to CSV mean?
Convert transactions to CSV means taking transaction lines from a PDF—often a bank statement—and writing each one as a row in a comma-separated values file. You get consistent columns instead of a locked layout that is hard to filter or import.
Accountants, founders, and developers use this when they need one row per payment or deposit for reconciliation, cash-flow models, or scripts. CSV opens in Excel and Google Sheets and feeds most accounting imports.
