Checking export status

Use this procedure to check data export status, after a data export has started. You will only be able to view your data exports. The View all exports user permission enables administrators to view exports of all users.

Procedure

Choose Data > Export Status. The Export Status dialog box opens.

Each export is listed with a numeric ID, file name (typically your username), status, and the description that you typed in when you imported the file.

The status is one of the following:

  • Exporting - The file is being exported.
  • Finished - The file is successfully exported. You can view the file by clicking on the file name (underlined link). The file will open in an Excel browser window. You can print, edit, or save the file from this window.
  • Error - The file was not exported successfully.

Once exports are done, you can delete them from the Export Status dialog box to reduce clutter.
