Export purchase to CSV

Clicking this link exports your purchase invoices, purchase credits, and supplier records in a format that can be read by your accounts package.

You must first set up the format for this in accounts outputs inside system maintenance as each differing accounting software has different requirements.

Every time you enter an invoiced item in purchase invoice entry a purchase transaction record is saved.  When you want to export them, it will write the files (one for the invoiced items and one for the suppliers referenced by those items) and then mark the record as "exported" so that it doesn't export the same transaction twice.

You first see a screen similar to the following:

The first time you see this screen the file names will be blank. Use the "..." buttons for each file to guide you to the folder from which you want your accounts program to pick the data up,  then enter the file names.

Then simply click on Start, and the files will be exported.

N.B. It is your own responsibility to delete the old files after you have successfully imported them into your accounts program.
