Convert OFX to TSV Online

Paste an OFX table below, edit it if you need to, and get TSV back. The conversion runs in your browser, so nothing is uploaded, there is no size limit and there is no signup.

What OFX is

OFX is the format behind the Download Transactions button on your bank's website. Version 1 is SGML, where a leaf element has an opening tag and no closing one. Version 2 is real XML. QFX is Intuit's variant of the same thing with a few extra tags, which is why a .qfx file opens in Quicken and is refused by software that only knows plain OFX.

Retail banks, credit card issuers and brokerages, because it is what Quicken and Microsoft Money asked for and the industry standardised on.

What TSV is

TSV is CSV with tabs instead of commas. Because tabs almost never appear inside a value, quoting is rarely needed and the files are easier to read by eye.

Bioinformatics, log processing, and anyone who has copied a block of cells out of a spreadsheet: the clipboard format is TSV.

What changes when you convert OFX to TSV

Each STMTTRN block becomes a row: date, amount, type, payee, memo, cheque number and the bank's own transaction id. The account number and currency come from the statement header and are added to every row, so a file merged with another still says which account it came from. Both the SGML and the XML flavour are read the same way.

Pick TSV over CSV when your values contain commas. Pasting the result straight into a spreadsheet fills the cells correctly with no import dialog.

What carries over from OFX to TSV

OFX records 3 things about a table that TSV has no way to hold.

OFX distinguishes a number from the text of a number; TSV does not, so every value arrives as text and has to be re-parsed by whatever reads it next.

An empty cell and a missing one are the same thing in TSV, so a null and an empty string in the OFX both come out blank and can no longer be told apart.

OFX can hold a value that is itself a list or an object. TSV has only flat cells, so nested values are flattened into one cell rather than being spread across columns.

The result can be read a record at a time, and appended to by adding to the end of it. That is worth having for a table too large to hold in memory, and it means a TSV file that is cut off part way through still gives you every record before the cut.

A worked example

Three rows of staff data, with an identifier that has a leading zero, a value containing a comma, a value containing quotes and one blank cell. Those are the four places formats disagree, so they are the four places to look.

Questions

How do I convert OFX to TSV?

Paste your OFX into the box above or drop the file onto it. Check the table in the grid, then copy or download the TSV from the output panel. It takes one step and the data never leaves your browser.

What is the difference between OFX and QFX?

QFX is OFX with Intuit-specific tags added, most importantly a bank identifier that Quicken uses to decide whether it will accept the file. The transaction data is identical, which is why anything that reads OFX reads QFX. Banks often charge for the QFX version of the same download.

Will my numbers still be numbers?

They will read the same, but TSV stores them as text. Anything that sorts or sums the result will need to parse them first, and a leading zero or a currency symbol is the usual place that goes wrong.

What happens to nested values?

TSV has no nested cell, so a list or object inside a OFX value is flattened into a single cell rather than expanded into extra columns. Split it before converting if the parts need to be separate.

Is there a limit on file size?

No. The work happens on your own machine, so the limit is your machine's memory rather than an upload cap. A file with tens of thousands of rows converts in a second or two.

Is my data uploaded anywhere?

No. The parsing and generating are done by JavaScript running on this page. You can watch the network tab while you convert and see that nothing is sent.
