How to edit an export template?

Hello,

how would you edit an existing export template?
I could not find any guidance.

Which files have to be edit?
(maybe for example to edit “dataexport facture_1”)

Three questions for example:

  1. How to add a field from a table
  2. How to change a date field (for example from “yy/mm/dd” to “dd.mm.yyyy”)
  3. How to add a constant

Thank you in advance.

1st question. You have a large list of fields in step 2 that you can export and you can decide which ones you want to export.

2nd question. once the file is exported you can easly change the date format in excel (select all dates -> right click -> format cells -> date)
3rd question. what do you mean by that?

Thank you,

I know this and work with it.

  1. But how can I add non-pre-defined fields from tables (e.g. extra-fields).

  2. If you define a schedule job for export is it and use it every day it will be more comfortable to have the right date format without handling in excel.

  3. If your goal- / receiver-system need some constant field information which Dolibarr not provide it can be helpful to add this direct in every export-line.
