Data format
QIF Sample Files
Quicken Interchange Format (.qif) files store account registers, split transactions, categories, and payee data in a plain-text financial export format. Despite its age, QIF still appears in legacy accounting and personal-finance imports. Use sample .qif files to test ledger imports, category mapping, split-transaction parsing, and compatibility with older bookkeeping or reconciliation systems.
