Export Data Tab

This section includes the fields and descriptions for the Export Data tab.

Run Mode Island

Field Description
Create File By marking this field, you indicate that you want to perform a new export. For reprints of previous exports, the mark should be removed, as Maconomy will otherwise create another file, not a reprint. The file is created when you select the “Create File” action.

Export Information Island

Field Description
Data Agent In this pop-up field you select the data agent whose format you want to use for the current export. Data agents are created in the Data Agents workspace.
Data Type In this field, you can specify whether to export G/L entries or job entries.
File Name In this field, you must specify the name of the file which will contain the exported data when you select the “Create File” action. The file is formatted in accordance with the format of the data agent you selected in the field “Data Agent.” The file is placed in your Maconomy client folder, unless you specify another path.

If you do not specify a file name here, Maconomy will use the file and path name specified in the field “Standard Export File Name” in the Data Agents workspace. If no file name is specified there, Maconomy will display a dialog box in which you can select a file name and location.
