This facility allows you to select a posted batch, and to create an export file containing all the posted transactions which was posted (updated) to the ledger. TurboCASH will create a data file in the selected file format or file type. To be able to select the correct batches with ease, you need to utilise the Change the Alias batch processing option before posting (updating) a batch to the ledger. If you did not Change the Aliases (batch names), you may find it difficult to locate the correct batches you wish to import.

You will use this option to create an export file when you wish to use the Import Posted Batches batch processing option to import the posted transactions in a selected batch (journal). You may need to do this to cancel a batch which was incorrectly posted, or to create a new batch containing similar transactions which you may edit and post to the ledger.

An example of the exported posted batches is illustrated for each of the following file types:

1. Export Posted Batches - View XML
2. Export Posted Batches - View Spreadsheet
3. Export Posted Batches - View TXF
