Export translation file

You can export all objects in your database as an Aeneis translation file (.i18n.xlsx). Aeneis exports the working drafts of objects that can be maintained in multiple languages. You can use the export dialog to control which objects are exported.

Customized export

The customized export is active by default for every Excel export. If this option is active, the selected object and all child objects are exported by default. You can restrict the export again individually using a list.

    Note: The child object of the selected objects are exported automatically and do not have to be selected explicitly. If you do not want to export all child objects, you can deselect them individually in the export dialog.
