What a Yes Bank statement looks like
Yes Bank does not issue a single statement format. These are the 3 layouts Greenote recognises, and the differences between them are exactly what a one-size converter gets wrong.

Where Yes Bank statements trip up generic converters
These are the specific things that go wrong when a Yes Bank statement is run through a general purpose PDF to Excel tool, or typed by hand at the end of a long day.
- 1
The first layout has no clean header row at all, so columns can only be located by position. Anything that keys off header text finds nothing.
- 2
The running balance can carry a " Cr." or " Dr." suffix that has to be stripped before the number parses.
- 3
Two of the three layouts print both a transaction date and a value date, and they are not always the same day.
How Greenote turns it into Tally vouchers
If all you want is the spreadsheet, stop after step two and export it to Excel. That is a complete use of Greenote and plenty of people never go further.
- 1
Detect the Yes Bank layout
Greenote identifies the bank from the statement itself and picks the matching reader, so the right one of the layouts above is used without you selecting anything.
- 2
Rebuild every transaction
Dates, narration, debit, credit and running balance are reassembled into one row per transaction, including the multi-line and continuation cases listed above.
- 3
Classify and name the counterparty
Each line gets a category (what the transaction was) and, where the narration allows it, a party name (who it was with), bound to a ledger that already exists in your Tally company.

Post into Tally
Greenote builds the voucher XML for your Tally version and posts it into your local Tally. You review before anything is written.
Get a text PDF, not a scan. Download the statement straight from Yes Bank net banking as a PDF or Excel file. A text PDF contains the actual characters and can be read exactly. A scanned printout or a phone photo only contains a picture of the text, and every figure in it has to be guessed. How to tell the two apart in three seconds.
The Yes Bank statement never leaves your PC
Greenote processes the statement on your own machine and sends it nowhere. Your firm stays the data fiduciary for your client's bank data, which is the answer a client actually wants when they ask where their statement goes and who stores it. Greenote is a pass-through to Tally, not a place your client data lives.

Yes Bank statement to Tally: common questions
- Can I convert a Yes Bank statement PDF to Excel?
- Yes. Greenote exports a formatted Excel workbook from a Yes Bank statement, containing the full transaction ledger plus category and party summaries, daily balances and separated sheets for cash, transfers and income. The conversion runs on your own PC and the statement is not uploaded anywhere. Posting the same data into Tally is a separate step you do not have to use.
- Can Greenote read a Yes Bank statement PDF?
- Yes. Greenote has a reader tuned specifically to Yes Bank statements and handles all 3 layouts currently in circulation. Give it the PDF you downloaded from net banking and it produces dated, signed transactions with the narration intact.
- Which Yes Bank statement format should I download?
- Download the statement as a PDF or Excel file directly from net banking. A text PDF carries the real characters, so it can be read exactly. A scan or a phone photo of a printout carries only an image of the text and has to be guessed at, which is where accuracy is lost.
- Does my client's Yes Bank statement get uploaded anywhere?
- No. Greenote runs on your Windows PC and processes the statement there. The file is not sent to Greenote servers or any third party, and the only thing Greenote talks to is your local Tally. That keeps your firm the data fiduciary for your client data under the DPDP Act.
- Does it work with Tally Prime and Tally ERP 9?
- Yes, both. Greenote builds the correct voucher XML for the version you are running and posts all seven voucher types, with GST handled where it applies.
