# Exporting Locations Data

On your Locations panel in Konnect, look for the **Export Function** under the menu options. This button is your gateway to extracting all location-related data into a spreadsheet for offline analysis and record-keeping in your ERP. It can:

- **Consolidate:** Capture the exact set of columns and rows you’re viewing (columns chosen in the Column Selector) in the Konnect Locations Panel (e.g., location details, channel-specific data, buffer stock).
- **Share:** Prepare an exportable `.xlsx` file for internal or external stakeholders for auditing, analysis, or data entry.
- **Archive:** Keep historical snapshots of your location configurations over time.


## Initiating Export File

1. **Filter & Select Columns**
  - Use the Type and Status filters, or add specific columns via the Column Selector to narrow down the data you want.
  - Confirm you are displaying all the fields you need — only visible columns will be included in the export.

3. **Search & Filter:** Use the search bar or filters (by Date, Channel, Account, Location, Status, or Exported By) to find specific export jobs.
4. **Download or Re-Download:** For any successful export, click the download icon to retrieve the `.xlsx` file. This is handy if you need a backup copy or want to compare previous snapshots of location data.


Note
The exported file mirrors the exact table view you had when you clicked **Export Data**. Always verify your columns selections to ensure the file captures all necessary data.
