Introduction to Exports in the Restaurant Module

The 'Exports' function allows you to export certain information from your Standard ERP database to tab-delimited text files from where you can incorporate it in word processing programs for mailmerge, in spreadsheets for further statistical analysis or in page make-up programs for incorporation in publicity material or published reports. Remember that you can also print reports to disk, so most of the information that is stored in a Standard ERP database is available to other applications via the medium of the text file.

To begin exporting, click the [Routines] button in the Navigation Centre. A list of routines appears: click the [Exports] button in the list of routines to open the 'Exports' list illustrated below. This lists the single Export that you can produce from the Restaurant module. You can also use the Ctrl-E (Windows and Linux) or ⌘-E (macOS) keyboard shortcut to open the 'Exports' list. If you double-click the item in the list a specification window will appear, where you can decide the contents of the exported text file. Click [Run] and a 'Save File' dialogue box will appear, where you can name the file and determine where it is to be saved.
