Problems and fixes

Dates show up as numbers like 46298
That is how Excel stores dates. FileInto reads real Excel dates, so this only happens when the column is formatted as text. Format the column as Date in Excel and save again.
Summary rows at the top are counted
Rows without a valid date are skipped and listed under "rows skipped". Delete totals and notes at the bottom if they have dates.
Quicken says it can’t import the file or shows an OL- error
Quicken checks the institution named in the QFX file against its own list. FileInto writes a listed institution. If Quicken still refuses, write to us with your Quicken version and the exact error code.
Quicken asks to create a new account
Choose Link to an existing account. Quicken matches on the account number in the file, so entering the last digits of your real account number in Settings makes linking automatic next time.
Transactions are duplicated
Each transaction gets a fixed id, so re-importing the same file is skipped. Overlapping exports from your bank can still duplicate; export non-overlapping date ranges.
Dates are wrong by months
Your bank uses day-first dates. Set "Dates in your file" to Day first.

Questions

What is a QFX file?
QFX is Quicken’s version of the OFX banking format, also called Web Connect. It carries transactions with ids so Quicken can skip ones it already has.
Is my spreadsheet uploaded?
No. FileInto opens it inside your browser tab.
Which Excel formats work?
.xlsx and older .xls files. Only the first sheet is read.
Can I convert a CSV instead?
Yes. Drop a .csv file into the same converter; it reads both.
What are the limits?
Files up to 25 MB. Every file gets a full preview free. Downloads up to 25 transactions are free, no account needed; a Day Pass ($9 for 24 hours) or Unlimited ($7 a month) has no row limit. It works in current versions of Chrome, Edge, Safari and Firefox, on computers and phones.
