What this tab controls
The card is headed Data Export — “Export clinic data as CSV or ZIP. Large exports run in the background — you can navigate away and check back.”
There is no format picker. One module gives you a CSV; more than one gives you a ZIP of CSVs. That is the whole rule.
The module groups a pharmacy will care about most are Administrative — which is where Pharmacy POS Sales, Billing Invoices and Billing Payments live — and Patient Profile, which holds your customer records. Audit Logs, under Compliance & Audit, is only offered to owners and managers; everyone else simply does not see it in the list.
Run an export
1
Choose your modules
Open Modules and search, or use Select all. Each choice becomes a chip you can remove with its ✕.
2
Narrow the dates, if you want to
Set a Date range (optional). Leaving it as All time exports everything, which on a busy pharmacy is a large file.
3
Select Export
The button reads Export {n} modules. It changes to “Queuing…” and the export is handed to a background job.
4
Let it run
A panel appears above the card showing the progress label and a percentage. You can leave this page, keep serving customers, and come back — the export carries on without you.
5
Download it
When the panel turns green and reads Export ready it shows the file name and its size, with a Download button. Save it somewhere secure.
What changes once you export
Nothing in your pharmacy changes. Exporting is a read — no record is altered, moved or deleted, and the till carries on as normal while a large export runs. What does change is your responsibility for the file. Three things to know:- The link expires after 24 hours. The notice on the tab is explicit: “Files contain PHI. Handle securely per HIPAA. Links expire in 24 hours.” After that the Re-download button disappears from Recent Exports and the row is marked ”· expired”. Run it again if you need it.
- You are told on this page, not by email. There is no email or push when it finishes — the panel on this tab updates live, and the last few jobs are listed under Recent Exports. Come back and look.
- The file is unprotected once it leaves. It is a plain spreadsheet containing customer details on your own machine. Keep it somewhere encrypted, do not email it around, and delete it when you are done.
Check it worked
The panel should turn green with Export ready and a file size that is not zero. Open the downloaded file: a single module opens directly as a CSV, several arrive as a ZIP with one CSV per module. Check the row count looks like the period you asked for.Common issues
Audit Logs is not in the list

The panel turns red with Export failed and the reason. Narrow the date range or export fewer modules at a time, then try again.

The job carried on. Come back to this tab and look under Recent Exports — the last few completed jobs are listed with a Re-download button while they are still in date.
I got a ZIP and expected a spreadsheet

More than one module always produces a ZIP. Unzip it and you have one CSV per module inside.
