Exporting a Category

Modified on Fri, 8 Jul, 2022 at 3:37 PM

To create a backup copy of an elaborately created and maintained Category, it can be useful and expedient to export it. The export and import format is XLSX. For this reason, export files created in this way can always be re-imported as well. To create an export file from a Labregister Category, follow the steps below.


Note: It is only possible to export one Category at a time. If you wish to have all inventories together in a single document with a worksheet for each Category, merge your export files outside Labfolder, please.


  1. Click OPTIONS.
  2. Click Export category.

  1. Click EXPORT to execute.


Note: The export file will always show exactly what is contained in the Labregister Category: all items and item attributes will be exported. In the export file, all attribute types (incl. Item IDs) will be displayed as text values. Attachements (images or others) are not exported. After you have created an export from a Labregister Category, you can edit the data with any spreadsheet processor.
