Understanding the exported CSV file
The exported CSV file contains one row per transaction and several fields that describe the transaction. The exact values depend on the account, asset, transaction type, and selected default currency.
| Field | What it means |
|---|---|
| Time | The date and time when the transaction was recorded. This helps you identify when funds were sent or received. |
| Type |
The transaction type. Possible values are received, sent, and sent_to_yourself. This helps you understand whether funds were received, sent to another address, or moved within your own wallet.
|
| Amount | The amount of the asset that was sent or received. |
| Unit | The asset unit of the transaction amount, such as BTC, ETH, or another supported asset. |
| Fee | The transaction fee paid for the transaction, if applicable. Fees usually apply to outgoing transactions. |
| Fee Unit | The asset unit in which the transaction fee was paid, such as BTC or ETH. |
| Address | The address involved in the transaction. Depending on the transaction, this may be the receiving address or the destination address. |
| Transaction ID | The unique transaction identifier on the blockchain. You can use it to look up the transaction in a compatible block explorer. |
| Historical value | The estimated fiat value of the transaction at the time it occurred. The displayed currency depends on the default currency selected in the BitBoxApp under Settings > Appearance. |
| Historical value currency | The fiat currency used for the historical value, such as USD, EUR, or CHF. |
| Note | A personal transaction note, if one was added in the BitBoxApp. Notes can help you remember the purpose of a transaction later. |
Adding notes to transactions
You can add personal notes to transactions in the BitBoxApp to keep your records organized. These notes are included in the CSV export and can help you understand the purpose of a transaction later.
→ Transaction notes are part of wallet labels using BIP-329.
FAQ
Can I export the transaction history for all accounts at once?
No. The transaction history export is account-specific. If you use multiple accounts, export the transaction history for each account separately.
Which file format does the BitBoxApp export?
The BitBoxApp exports transaction history as a CSV file. CSV files can be opened with spreadsheet software such as Microsoft Excel, Apple Numbers, LibreOffice Calc, or Google Sheets.
Can I export the transaction history as a PDF?
No. The BitBoxApp exports transaction history as a CSV file. If you need a PDF, open the CSV file in spreadsheet software and export or print it as a PDF from there.
Are transaction notes included in the CSV export?
Yes. If you added notes to transactions in the BitBoxApp, they appear in the Note column of the exported CSV file.
Is the CSV export tax-ready?
The CSV export provides transaction data, but it is not a complete tax report. Tax requirements depend on your country and personal situation. If needed, import the CSV into tax software or consult a tax professional.
Why is the historical value field empty?
Historical value data may be unavailable for some transactions, assets, or time periods. An empty historical value field does not affect the validity of the transaction itself.
Can I edit the CSV file after exporting it?
Yes. You can open and edit the CSV file with compatible spreadsheet software. If you make changes, consider keeping an unchanged copy of the original export for your records.
