Read HDFC Statements in XLS Format and convert to CSV format
Sample HDFC Statement in XLS Format - https://drive.google.com/open?id=1kG7a6x2k5Hjaj5IF7Vn1QXsT-0AIpk-R
@MovingToWeb Will start working on this. Planning to create a spring boot project for this.
@MovingToWeb I have started with implementing a parser module using the POI library. I am considering the following attributes for the CSV file. Please have a look and let me know if this fits the generic CSV format and do we have all required attributes
Bank Name, Branch Address, User Name, User Address, Cust Id, Statement Start Date, Statement End Date, Account Number, Date, Transaction, Ref No, Date, Withdraw Amount, Deposit Amount, Closing Balance
@varunu28 You may want to take the other task which says about "generic CSV model". So we can leave this task for the HDFC specific statement. Just to make sure we track it for a correct task.
@TechSourav The task which I am currently working on is to read the HDFC statement and to convert it to CSV format. Are these two separate tasks or am I missing something here?
@varunu28 Instead of going entity by entity(e.g. HDFC), should we just have a generic module for CSV format statements and pass each entity into it? So we can make use of this generic module for all the other entities. What do you say?
@TechSourav We can have a generic format for the CSV but I suppose we need to have different code modules for each of bank statements unless the bank statements in xlsx follow the same format across all the banks.
Therefore, the approach which I suggest is to have an interface for the CSV format and pass that as specific code modules to get the required attributes.
@varunu28 This seems correct. So will you write the interface for the CSV format in this same issue?
@TechSourav Yes. This is the suggested format for CSV
Bank Name, Branch Address, User Name, User Address, Cust Id, Statement Start Date, Statement End Date, Account Number, Date, Transaction, Ref No, Date, Withdraw Amount, Deposit Amount, Closing Balance
@MovingToWeb Can you please also provide some input on the format?
@TechSourav Yes. This is the suggested format for CSV
Bank Name, Branch Address, User Name, User Address, Cust Id, Statement Start Date, Statement End Date, Account Number, Date, Transaction, Ref No, Date, Withdraw Amount, Deposit Amount, Closing Balance@MovingToWeb Can you please also provide some input on the format?
I think, we would just duplicate the data here? each row contain same data except
Date, Transaction, Ref No, Date, Withdraw Amount, Deposit Amount, Closing Balance
I think, we should re-think and come with a better approach?

We can have two different interfaces. One for user details and another for transactions. These two can be mapped based on the Customer ID.
Sorry guys. Got busy with some personal stuff. How about a Hangout to discuss and close this one? Saturday sounds fine?
