Export File Formats

UltraCart can export information in BizTracker, XML (Extensible Markup Language), CSV (Comma Separated Values), TXT (tab Delimited Text) or Excel formats, and Mail Order Manager 5. XML has become the standard information exchange format between different systems. XML is the preferred format of UltraCart. XML can represent information that does not have a flat structure. Orders are an excellent example of information that does not conform to a flat structure because each order can contain numerous items, etc. Due to this fact the XML format can represent the entire order information while the CSV format can only contain summary detail (no item detail).

If you need to filter the kit items or the kit component items you can check the box below. Only one box is applicable at a time. If you filter kits then the cost will be spread to the component rows. If you filter components then the weight will be rolled up to the kit row.

When performing the actual order export from either Accounts Receivable or Shipping Departments, UltraCart will not prompt you for a mapping file. It will use whichever mapping file you set as the default at this field. If you do not set a default mapping, then UltraCart will export orders from that department in XML format. It's highly recommended that you create and set a default mapping for both accounts receivable and shipping departments so users know what type of file format the orders will export in. You can set one file format for both departments.
