EVERYDAY ACCOUNT

How do you get a Desjardins account statement from AccèsD?

These are the steps on Desjardins’ documents and statements page, checked October 2026. Online statements need a one-time registration first.

  1. 1

    Register for online documents

  2. 2

    Log in to AccèsD on a computer

    Select your everyday account under Accounts

    In the app: Accounts, See all, then the account.

  4. 4

    Open Statements and choose the month

    Each month’s statement appears on the first day of the next month and stays retrievable for 7 years.

  5. 5

    Save it as a PDF

    Keep one file per month. Desjardins sends no notification for account statements, so add a monthly reminder.

We set you up and catch up your past months for free. Then ZeraBooks keeps your books done.

FROM PDF TO ROWS

How does a Desjardins statement become rows?

Here is a real run in ZeraBooks Convert. The statement belongs to Boulangerie Saint-Roch, a fictional bakery: its September compte d’opérations (in French) statement with 13 transactions, file Desjardins_releve_operations_81234_2026-09.pdf. Convert read every line and proved $14,378.90 − $3,607.30 = $10,771.60, the closing balance printed on the statement, before offering the download.

TRANSACTION CODES

What do the 3-letter codes on a Desjardins statement mean?

Desjardins prints a 3-letter code beside each transaction and publishes the full list. These are the ones a small business sees most, with Desjardins’ own definitions:

CodeDesjardins’ definitionMoney in or out
DIRDirect depositIn
MCDMobile cheque depositIn
INTInterest on Everyday Transaction AccountIn
ACBAccèsD bill paymentOut
ATWATM withdrawalOut
CHQChequeOut
DWPreauthorized paymentOut
PAPPreauthorized purchaseOut
ADMService chargesOut
ACTTransfer between accountsEither

An “I” in front of a code means the transaction was made at a caisse you’re not a member of (inter-caisses), so IATW is still an ATM withdrawal. Desjardins’ statement also shows the folio number, the period, the transaction date, the description and the balance after each transaction.

WORKED EXAMPLE

What does a converted Desjardins statement look like?

Atelier Boréal is a fictional Quebec studio. Its September 2026 everyday account statement opens at $1,962.40. In the Standard format, money out is a minus and the code meanings help you check each row:

DateCode on statementDescriptionAmount
09/02/2026DIRClient payment1,480.00
09/08/2026ACBHydro bill-236.18
09/12/2026ATWCash, ATM-100.00
09/19/2026PAPSoftware subscription-54.99
09/30/2026ADMMonthly service charges-4.95
09/30/2026INTInterest0.38
Opening 1,962.40 + rows3,046.66

The proof: money in 1,480.00 + 0.38 = 1,480.38, money out 236.18 + 100.00 + 54.99 + 4.95 = 396.12, and 1,962.40 + 1,480.38 − 396.12 = 3,046.66, the balance after the last transaction. The Standard file itself has Date, Description and Amount; the code column here is shown for reading alongside the statement.

BEFORE YOU CONVERT

What should you know before converting a Desjardins PDF?

  • French or English, descriptions stay as printed

    Desjardins publishes its site in French and English. Convert keeps each description exactly as printed, so a line printed in French comes out in French.

  • Dates come out month first

    Every Convert format writes MM/DD/YYYY. In a spreadsheet set to day-first dates, import the column as month-first so 09/08 reads as September 8.

  • The proof needs balances to check against

    Convert checks the rows against the balances printed on the statement. If an account prints none, it stays at Needs a look even when every line was read correctly, so compare it with the PDF.

  • Transfers between your own accounts

    ACT lines moving money between your own Desjardins accounts are transfers, not income or spending. Treat them that way in your books.

  • No connection to AccèsD

    ZeraBooks never asks for your AccèsD sign-in. You save the PDF and upload it.

WITH ZERABOOKS

From AccèsD PDF to a spreadsheet you can trust.

PROVEN TO THE CENT

Every line has to reach the balance.

Convert adds the lines it read to the starting balance and compares the total with the balance on the page. A missed ATM withdrawal shows up as a difference of exactly that amount. The method is the same one used in convert a bank statement to CSV.

How Convert proves a statement
The statement proof: every account adds up to the statement to the cent, with the opening balance, transactions and closing balance for each account.

READY-MADE FORMATS

Excel or CSV for your spreadsheet or accounting software.

Standard, Money in and out, QuickBooks-ready, Xero-ready, Sage-ready or All details, with every row’s Type set from the line. Download a year of Desjardins statements in one file with an Account column, or one tab per account.

QUESTIONS

How long does Desjardins keep account statements online?

Desjardins says the online account statement is available on the first day of the month and is retrievable for 7 years.

Why can’t I print my Desjardins statement from the app?
