Grid data export

Edit online

You can export line-item grid-data by using the export actions. However, since the data exists at different levels in the runtime hierarchy, you need different rules for each level.

For example, to export the data from an invoice, you typically need:
  • A rule to set up the export file or open the database
  • A rule to export the header information
  • A rule to export each of the line items
  • A rule to export any trailing items (for example, the invoice total field)
  • A rule to close the file or database
An example of exporting data to a database is provided in the topic Exporting to a database.
