Export (CSV) - Admin User's Guide
Applies to: Invoices, Customers, Orders, and other exportsWhat this tool does
The Export tool lets you download data as a CSV file you can open in spreadsheet software. Every export screen follows the same layout and behavior: choose your filters, pick which columns to include, and click Download CSV. You can also save your favorite settings as a reusable Preset.
Quick start
- Open the export page you need (for example, Invoices Export).
- Set any filters you want (date range, status, customer, totals, and other flags).
- Scroll to Columns and tick the fields you want in your CSV.
- Click Download CSV. Your file downloads immediately.
- Optional: type a preset name and click Save Preset to reuse these settings later.
Filters
Date From / Date To
Restrict results to records created within this date range. Leave blank to include all dates.
Status
Show only records in a particular state (for example: draft, sent, posted, paid, void for invoices).
Customer
Limit to one customer. Leave empty to include all customers.
Paid
Choose Paid or Unpaid to quickly segment by balance state (where supported).
Min Total / Max Total
Only include rows whose grand total falls within this numeric range.
Other Flags
Handy shortcuts such as Has PO # or Has Notes to narrow results even further.
Choosing columns
Use the Columns checklist to control which fields appear in your CSV. As you tick items, the hidden list of columns updates automatically. Typical invoice fields include:
| Column | What it contains |
|---|---|
| Invoice Number | Human-friendly invoice code. |
| Created At / Sent At / Paid At / Due Date | Timestamps and dates in ISO format (YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS for datetimes; YYYY-MM-DD for dates). |
| Status / Terms | Lifecycle state and credit terms. |
| Customer Code / Customer Name | Buyer identifiers. |
| Subtotal / Discount Total / Tax Total / Shipping Total / Grand Total | Monetary values with two decimals. |
| Currency | ISO currency code (where available). |
| Order Number / Order Status | Linked order info (when applicable). |
| Item Count | Sum of line item quantities. |
| Notes | Internal note text entered by the owner/staff. |
Other export types (customers, orders, etc.) present a different list but use the same checklist interface.
Saving and loading presets
Presets remember your filter values and chosen columns so you can repeat exports without reconfiguring.
- Save Preset: After setting filters and columns, enter a name and click Save Preset.
- Load Preset: Use the preset dropdown at the top of the page and click Load. The page refreshes with the saved settings applied.
- Rename/Delete: Create a new preset with a new name to replace old ones you no longer use.
Downloading the CSV
- Click Download CSV.
- Wait for your browser to save the file (for example, invoices_export_YYYYMMDD_HHMMSS.csv).
- Open in your spreadsheet tool and format as needed.
CSV format details
- Fields are comma-separated; values containing commas or quotes are safely quoted with doubled quotes.
- Money shows two decimals (e.g., 1234.50).
- Timestamps are ISO-like without milliseconds (e.g., 2025-03-31 14:05:00).
Common scenarios
Get all unpaid invoices
- Paid: Unpaid
- Status: posted or sent (as needed)
- Columns: include due date and customer details
Export last month’s orders
- Date From/To: set to last month’s range
- Status: choose shipped/completed if needed
- Save Preset: reuse each month
Troubleshooting
- Preset name is required: Enter a name before clicking Save Preset.
- Preset not found: The selected preset was removed or is not available for this export type.
- No rows in the file: Loosen your filters (clear date range, remove status/customer limits) and try again.
- Unexpected totals or counts: Re-check your selected columns and any filters like Paid or Other Flags.
Who can use this page?
Designed for wholesaler admins (owners and staff). Buyers do not have access to admin exports.
Tips
- Start broad: export with minimal filters first, then narrow down.
- Name presets clearly, like AR - Overdue or Ops - Shipments This Week.
- Keep a standard set of columns for reports you share internally.
