Export IWO Allocations

Use this screen to export IWO allocations. The export process does not actually move the data into the receiving database.

Rather, it creates one comma-separated value (.csv) file. The file is named by the export process and uses the receiving location code as owner of the tables. The file created is for the allocation header, transaction, and labor tables.

Use this screen only for those IWO processes that involve transfer of projects to external databases. This is the seventh step for external transfers. After you are satisfied with your selection of IWO allocations, use this screen to export them.

Note: There are two ways to work with export files in Costpoint:
  • You can export the file to an Alternate File Location.
  • You can export the file to the Costpoint database.

If you decide to use the first option, click in the File Location field to select the alternate file location to which you want to save the files. If you choose the second option, leave the File Location field blank when you export the files.
