Export Wizard Overview

MetrixIDR provides a complete set of exports for configuration and time-series data. Text files in formats like CSV and Excel spreadsheets are supported. Almost all components of the system can be exported from the system. Exports can be executed manually through the client application by selecting the Export Wizard option on the Tools menu. This brings up the Import Wizard, which takes the user through a series of pages to configure the import action.

• On the first page of the wizard, the user selects the export type (e.g., Meter List or Meter Data) and selects enters or browses to the path and filename to be used.
• The second and third pages allow the user to define the scope of items to be exported by entering a list of items, selecting a folder, or constructing a filter criteria.
• Third page includes output options, like whether to include a header record and, in the case of spreadsheet exports, the sheet name.
• The wizard concludes with the Finish page, which includes options to view the import settings as XML and to save the export configuration for use in tasks.

Details about the Export Wizard and the formats supported for specific data elements are provided in the Export Wizard section.
