How to export CommBank transactions to CSV

Updated 2026-10-15

Short answer

In CommBank (NetBank), open the account, choose the date range and use the download/export option to save a CSV file. The file contains: Date, Amount, Description, Balance — no header row. One signed Amount column (spending is negative). Import it into a budgeting spreadsheet such as Sorted Budget and the columns are detected and categorised for you.

Steps

  1. Log in to NetBank on a computer.
  2. Open the account you want.
  3. Search or filter transactions and set the date range you need.
  4. Scroll to the bottom of the list, choose Export, then CSV.

What’s in the file

ColumnsDate, Amount, Description, Balance — no header row
AmountsOne signed Amount column (spending is negative)
Date formatdd/mm/yyyy

Limits and tips

CommBank has removed OFX and QIF, so CSV is the format to use. Long date ranges may be capped at a few hundred rows per export — if the file looks short, export in smaller chunks (for example, three months at a time).

Banks update their menus from time to time. If a button has moved, search your bank’s help for “export transactions” or “download transactions”.
