Exporting Grid Data

The content of a grid can be exported in a variety of formats, useful for reports or record keeping.

The content of the grid is exported as it appears, so columns can be added, removed, and reorganized, and all data can be filtered and sorted. The export includes the information as it is displayed. If there is more than one page of data, the data from all pages is included.

The data exported using this feature is not formatted properly for re-import. See the Importing Grid Data section for details on exporting a template version for importing data.

Once the data is ready for export, click the Export Grid button in the bottom right of the grid to view the export options.
