Best practices
- Filter before exporting: otherwise the file contains the entire history, which can be heavy and not very useful
- Keep the exports: archive each monthly export in a dated folder, they serve as historical proof in case of audit
- Check consistency: before transmission, open the file and check the total — it must match the statistics displayed at the top of the list
- Anonymize if necessary: for sharing with third parties not authorized to see donor details, delete the Email, Phone, Address columns before transmission
Format limitations
- The exported file is a snapshot at the time of export. If you modify a payment afterwards, the export is not updated — you must launch a new export.
- For global statistics (totals by type, by month…), use the Dashboard instead.
- For tax receipts only, use the specific export of the Tax declaration.
