About ASB Bank statements
ASB Bank is an Auckland-headquartered bank owned by the Commonwealth Bank of Australia.
ASB's help pages describe Document Centre in internet banking as the store for PDF statements, holding them from as far back as December 2010 for bank accounts and credit cards. The ASB Mobile app shows roughly the last 12 months, so older files come from internet banking. Because ASB's own Statement Export handles recent transaction data, PDFs are mainly needed for archived periods or copies kept by an accountant.
Typical New Zealand statement headings and where they go in your export:
| On the statement | In your export |
|---|---|
| Date | Date |
| Type | Reference |
| Particulars | Description |
| Code | Reference |
| Reference | Reference |
| Withdrawals | Debit (and negative Amount) |
Also known as ASB NZ and ASB FastNet.
How to download your ASB statement as a PDF
- Log in to ASB internet banking on a computer.
- Open Document Centre or the statements area for your accounts.
- Pick the account and statement date, then open the PDF.
- Use the ASB Mobile app for statements from the last 12 months.
Menu names can change between app and website versions.
ASB CSV and Excel downloads vs converting the PDF
ASB's Statement Export downloads transactions as OFX, QIF, CSV or TDV for a chosen account and date range through Search and Export. ASB mentions up to seven years of transaction history, while Document Centre PDFs can go back further.
Converting the PDF statement is useful when you need periods outside that window, an account that is closed, or the exact figures printed on the official statement, including the running balance for reconciliation.
Tips for converting ASB statements
- ASB's Statement Export is quicker for recent periods; convert Document Centre PDFs when you need earlier years or when only PDF copies were kept.
- If ASB credit card purchases import as credits in your accounting software, use Flip signs once before exporting the OFX file.
