I started using Wesabe to (try) to manage my accounts, the only problem is that my bank (Caixa Geral de Depósitos), won’t support any of the formats used by Wesabe… There is also the problem that Wesabe is going to be discontinued, but since it is going to be released as open-source, I thought this might get handy for someone out there…

And make the appearance of a decent Android app easier (we hope )

Luckily for us mjvm made a fantastic script that turns all the process into a breeze, which is turning the csv file into a qif one.

Here is the link to the script.

And here is the README:
CSV2QIF
=======

This script converts the CSV provided by CGD (CAIXA GERAL DE DEPOSITOS)
home banking system to a QIF format so the it can be imported to personal
finance systems.

It was tested only on wesabe (http://www.wesabe.com/).

USAGE
—–

./csv2qif.py statment.csv
or
python csv2qif.py statment.csv

the result will be save in a statment.qif file in the same directory as the csv file.

Enjoy!
