Export FIT Data Files

FIT allows you to export data to an Excel file from four different reporting screens:
  •  Reporting
  •  Details
  •  Encumbrances
  •  Summary Reporting

To export data from any of these reporting screens choose File from the menu bar and click "Export to file".

Export to File image
 
A save dialog will appear.

Enter a name...export image
 
In the text box area at the bottom of the window, type in the appropriate name of the report and remember to keep the extension ".csv"   (example: testreport.csv).

Note:  All export files will now automatically go to the 'ibisfit\excel\' directory. After creating the export file from FIT, you can move the file to a directory of your choice.
 
FIT will not allow an existing export file to be over-written.  If you choose a filename of an existing export file in your 'ibisfit\excel' directory you will receive a 'Filename already exists...' warning. There are two options you can choose to avoid this warning and export your data:

  1. Rename the export file to a filename which does not exist in you 'ibisfit\excel\' directory.
  
  2. Move the existing export file out of the 'ibisfit\excel\' directory to a directory of your choice.
