There are four different ways to export your data.

 

You can use the “Balances - One time”, “Balances - From Template”, “Transactions - One time”, or “Transactions - From Template

 

The Template Export method allows you to fully customize all elements of the query. Using the Template function you can save an Export Template as an Export ID from the custom Transaction Export Template or Balance Export Template screens.

 

After you save an Export Template with your desired setting you will be able to quickly reuse those setting each time you select your saved template. To do this select the template name you saved from the Export ID drop-down on the Transaction Export from Template and/or the Balance Export from Template screens.
