What this does

Core shared report surfaces (for example profit and loss, balance sheet, trial balance, general ledger, and aging) export to CSV and XLSX.

Exports include the company/books name, filters, basis, as-of or date range, and generated-at time.

PDF output uses your browser’s Print / Save as PDF with a print-friendly layout. There is no separate native PDF generator.

Export

Corrections, voids, and reversals

  • Re-run and re-export after correcting source data; old files are not updated.

Audit trail

  • Exports reflect posted data at generation time, stamped in the file.

Availability and provider notes

  • Built – unverified: this workflow exists in the prelaunch product but has not yet completed human certification. Review results before relying on them.
  • No external provider is required.

Permissions

  • Anyone who can view a report can export it. Exported files leave KontoCore’s access controls — store them securely.

What happens in your books

Exports are read-only copies; they never change your books.

Common mistakes

  • Editing exported figures and treating them as the books.

Troubleshooting

No XLSX option

That view doesn’t support XLSX yet; use CSV or print.
