Export inventory data for spreadsheet analysis or print a focused product list for operational use. Choose the format and scope that match the question you are trying to answer.
Choose the data before choosing the format
CSV and Excel exports are useful for working with product information such as prices and quantities in a spreadsheet. A JSON export provides a structured inventory export for the selected store. Print Items produces a readable list of the catalog or a filtered subset. Store selection, filters and selected products determine the scope you should review before exporting.
Step by step
Define the report scope
Choose the store and apply the relevant category, supplier or product filters. Select specific products if you only need a subset.
Export for spreadsheet work
Choose CSV or Excel for tabular analysis. Open the saved file and check the columns, item count and numeric values before using it in a report.
Use JSON when structured data is needed
Export the complete inventory of the selected store to JSON when that format fits your downstream process. Keep the store and export date clear in the filename.
Print a practical stock list
Use Print Items for the full catalog or filtered list. Review the print output so it includes the products staff actually need.
An export is a copy of the data, not a live inventory view. Editing a spreadsheet does not by itself change stock in the system, and a JSON export should not be assumed to be a complete backup of every business record.
Before you move on
- Confirm store, filters and selected products.
- Open the exported file and inspect a sample.
- Label the date and scope so readers understand what the report contains.
