This page describes the 'Item Info' Export function in the Integration module.

The 'Item Info' Export function in the Integration module exports information from the Item register. Items will be listed in Item Number order in the export file.

This function creates a file with the correct format to be imported into another Standard ERP Company or database. The file will not contain every field in the Item register: in particular, information from the 'Texts' card of each Item record will not be included. If you need to export this information, use the . Referring to that report, the export file will contain every field from Code to RentalItem.

To use the 'Item Info' Export function, you must log in as a Global User or Person whose Access Group explicitly grants full access to the Integration module. Ensure you are in the Integration module and open the 'Exports' list by clicking the [Routines] button in the Navigation Centre and the [Exports] button in the subsequent 'Routines' window. Then double-click 'Items Info' in the 'Export' list to open the 'Specify Items Data' window.

Enter a name for the file, and click [Save] or press the Enter key. If you are exporting with the intention of importing the information into another Standard ERP database or Company using the 'Automatic' and 'Manual file search' Import routines, do not name the file with two leading minus signs/hyphens (e.g. --Data.txt). Information will not be imported from files named in this way.

A message window informs you about the progress of the export process. You can interrupt the process at any time by pressing Esc (Windows) or ⌘-Full Stop (macOS).
