About Discover statement layouts
Typical layout: Transaction date · Post date · Description · Amount. Credit card statements have no running balance; charges are positive and payments are marked with a minus sign or CR. Rowledger applies the card convention automatically and checks previous balance + charges − payments = new balance.
- Discover card statements list Trans Date, Post Date, Description and Amount with payments and credits marked with a minus sign.
- Discover Bank checking/savings statements use Date, Description, Amount and Balance instead.
- Dates on Discover statements are read as month/day (MM/DD); Rowledger confirms the order from the dates themselves and defaults the export to the matching format.
- Currency: USD. Amount columns are exported as plain numbers; the currency is recorded in the Summary sheet and OFX header.
Common products: Discover it cards, Discover Cashback Debit.

Questions about Discover statements
Is my Discover statement uploaded?
No. Discover statements are converted by code running in your browser. Nothing is sent to Rowledger or any third party, and the conversion works with the internet disconnected.
What format should I export for QuickBooks or Xero?
For QuickBooks Online use the 3-column CSV preset or QBO; for QuickBooks Desktop use QBO; for Xero use OFX or the Xero CSV preset; for Wave use OFX. All are produced from the same conversion.
Does it handle Discover credit card statements too?
Yes. Card statements are detected from the summary block and use the card sign convention (charges out, payments in), verified against previous and new balance.
What if my Discover statement is a scan?
Drop it anyway. Rowledger runs OCR in your browser, then applies the same balance verification so OCR slips are flagged on the row. Free covers the first two pages per scan; Pro is unlimited.
