Export formats — what's available today

Every business export format is available today: CSV (invoice list, posting-batch hand-off, income & expenses, bank transactions), PDF (invoice lists, single invoices, sales invoices), XLSX (five-sheet accounting reports), encrypted ZIPs (all receipts, full company data), and the advisor bulk-export ZIP (up to 25 clients). Only the personal GDPR account export is JSON — by design.

The matrix

Use this table as the definitive reference for which export exists, in which format, and where to trigger it.

The mobile app additionally exports the invoice list as CSV (plus a second format your accountant's software imports) straight into the iOS share sheet.

Format details worth knowing

Invoice CSV. 18 columns: invoice number, invoice and due dates, vendor, net / VAT rate / VAT / gross, currency, base currency, exchange rate with source and date, base-currency net/VAT/gross at ECB rates, status, and category (as a readable English label).

Posting-batch CSV. The simplified hand-off file for your accountant's accounting software. Includes a payment-evidence column (payment date + masked IBAN of the paying account) and appends a warning list of invoices marked paid without payment evidence.

Bank-transactions CSV. 22 columns including date, description, amount, currency, counterparty, reference, category, match status and confidence, and the matched invoice — split and bundled payments included.

Company-export CSVs. UTF-8 with BOM, semicolon-delimited, ISO-8601 dates — they open cleanly in Excel and import into most accounting tools. Every file in the ZIP is hashed (SHA-256) in a manifest so recipients can verify integrity.

IBAN masking. Every CSV masks IBANs to the first 4 and last 4 characters (e.g. CY17********************7600). This applies to account, counterparty, and partner IBANs alike.

XLSX accounting reports. Chart of Accounts, Profit & Loss, General Ledger, Trial Balance, and a financial-position sheet — draft summary by default, a proper Balance Sheet when a tax advisor maintains the ledger. See accounting reports as Excel.

Encrypted ZIPs and single-use links

The All-Receipts ZIP and the Company Data Export are AES-256-encrypted, with the password shown exactly once on screen (never emailed, never stored in plaintext). Delivery is a direct download or an emailed single-use link valid 24 hours; direct re-download tokens last 1 hour. Full walkthrough: download all receipts as a ZIP.

Filtering and gating

  • Period filtering is available on the reports and invoice exports (from/to dates; reports default to the current calendar year). Invoice exports filter by invoice date. The two full-archive ZIPs (all receipts, company data) always cover everything — they take no date range.
  • Basis: the accounting reports and income/expense exports support accrual (default) or cash.
  • Access is controlled by role: Owner, Admin, and Bookkeeper on the company side; connected tax advisors for the advisor-side exports.

What does not exist (yet)

To save you the search:

  • Official tax forms — no country VAT form is generated. The VAT Return Preparation page produces preparation data (totals by rate), not a filing.
  • Income & expenses as PDF — that report is CSV-only today.
  • Receipt images inside the advisor bulk export — the bulk ZIP carries invoice lists only; originals come via the per-client All-Receipts ZIP.

The one JSON export

The personal account data export (GDPR right of access) is deliberately JSON: lossless, complete, machine-readable — the properties a right-of-access file needs. It covers your personal user data, not the company's books. If you ever need it in a spreadsheet, Excel imports it via Data → Get Data → From File → From JSON. For business records, use the CSV/PDF/XLSX exports above instead.
