14 Exporting Category Data

You can export the registration list with all category data from the “Registrations” tab of the full version. This is done by clicking on the “Export” button at the bottom of the table view, or by right mouse clicking on the table view and selecting “Export” from the popup menu. The resulting exported file is a tab-delimited text file. Once the data is in this format, you can import the data into software programs like Excel. There are two different ways to present the data in export file. The selected type will determine how the categories fields will be saved in the export file.

14.1 Export using Division Codes

    1. 1. Arrange the view of field columns as desired using methods. Use the “Change View” function of the right mouse click menu to add missing fields. You can also leave the current view in the default view.
    2. 2. Click on the “Export” button at the bottom of the table view. Alternatively, right mouse click on the table view and select “Export” from the popup menu.
    3. 3. Select the export file type “Division codes” in the “Select Export Type” window of Figure 40.
    4. 4. Browse for the directory where the export file will be saved.
    5. 5. Enter a name for the file, and give it a file extension of “txt”.

14.2 Export using Separate Category Fields

The second type exports the standard registration fields allows you to export the each category field as its own field. The exported value of each field would be the full item name instead of division code.

For example, the category “ADULT” may have the following properties:

The are 8 exported fields related to the “ADULT” category are as follows:

To export the registrations from the table view using separate fields for each category field:

    1. 1. Arrange the view of field columns as desired using methods. Use the “Change View” function from the right mouse click menu to add missing fields. You can also leave the current view in the default view.
    2. 2. Click on the “Export” button at the bottom of the table view. Alternatively, right mouse click on the table view and select “Export” from the popup menu.
    3. 3. Select the export file type “Separate columns for each field” in the “Select Export Type” window of Figure 40.
    4. 4. Browse for the directory where the export file will be saved.
    5. 5. Enter a name for the file, and give it a file extension of “txt”.
    6. 6. Select the standard registrations fields that will appear in the selection window. Ensure that all the desired fields appear on the right, and that fields you don’t want in the export file should be moved to the left. The list of available registrations will be limited to the fields that are in the current table view. If a field that you want in the export file is not on this selection of available fields, then cancel out of the export and use the “Change View” function to add the field to the current table view.
    7. 7. Click “Ok”.
    8. 8. Select the category fields that you want to included in the export file. Each category field is represented by a line in the selection window, with the related category in the prefix.
    9. 9. Click “Ok” to complete the export.
