ofxstatement-lloyds 1.1.2

Features

Payee extraction

Parses Lloyds transaction descriptions to produce a clean payee name in the OFX <NAME> field. Downstream importers use this as the primary transaction label for display and auto-reconciliation.

Transaction type preservation

Prefixes the OFX <MEMO> field with the original Lloyds transaction type code (DD, FPI, FPO, DEB, BGC etc.), preserving detail that is lost in the standard OFX TRNTYPE mapping.

Structured memo

Splits the description into payee and remainder, so importers that display NAME : MEMO show useful detail rather than duplication.

Balance tracking

Calculates opening and closing balances from the reverse-chronological CSV, included in the OFX output for statement validation.

Supported transaction patterns

Card purchases

MERCHANT CD nnnn [ddMMMYY] extracts the merchant name.

FX purchases

MERCHANT [ref] [CURRENCY] amount VISAXR rate CD nnnn extracts the merchant, with FX details in the memo.

FX fees

NON-GBP TRANS FEE n.nn% CD nnnn normalised to Non-GBP Transaction Fee.

Faster payments (FPI/FPO/BGC)

PAYEE reference sortcode ddMMMYY HH:MM extracts the payer or payee name.

Direct debits and standing orders (DD/SO)

PAYEE mandate-reference extracts the payee name.

Service charges (PAY)

SERVICE CHARGES REF : number extracts the charge description.

Unrecognised formats fall back to the full description as payee with the transaction type code as memo.

Usage

Export a CSV statement from Lloyds online banking, then convert:

ofxstatement convert -t lloyds statement.csv statement.ofx

The CSV is expected in the format provided by Lloyds online banking with columns: date, type, sort code, account number, description, debit, credit, balance.

Odoo reconciliation

The payee and memo split is designed to work with Odoo’s reconciliation models and the OCA account_statement_completion_label_simple module.

The Label field in Odoo matches against the OFX <NAME> (clean payee). The Note field matches against <MEMO> (prefixed with the Lloyds transaction type code).

Example reconciliation model rules:
