This cli tool allows you to process commbank exported CSVs into ynab compatible CSVs. It keeps track of payees and aliases in a dictionary file.
Have a copy of the rust stable toolchain installed.
Clone the repository and run cargo install in the root.
ynab-cba -d <dictionary.yml> -o <output.csv> <target.csv>
The dictionary and output flags are optional. If omitted, the files will be created in the current working directory.
When the application starts, you will be asked to paste in commbank unexported data. When commbank exports a csv, it does not include transactions that are "pending". These are the gray transactions at the top of the list.
You can select and copy all the items in the row into this space. It should look like this
