Creating a new export (Excel or PDF)
In a short guide we describe the procedure for creating a custom export in Fynode and explain the available form settings. We show which fields to fill in, which template formats the system accepts and how to use the export for bulk downloading orders. Details are in the Exports section of the system administration.
Where to create an export
The Exports section is located at https://fynode.com/exports and contains a list of exports the user has created. After registration the list includes a default system PDF export named "Order export", which cannot be deleted or edited. The list shows basic information like name, export type and creation date.
Template, formats and placeholders
In the template you can use many placeholders like {order.id}, {order.number}, {order.client.email} or {order.product.name} which the system replaces with current order data. For Excel export you enter any number of rows, each row represents one CSV row and rows are separated by semicolons, while PDF export expects HTML code. The finished export can then be used in the Export bulk action in the order list.
Export form – required fields
The New export button opens a settings form where you select the Type of export, enter a unique Name and write the export content in the Template field. The Type field has options Excel or Pdf. After filling in, click save and the new export will appear in the exports list.
In the export form you choose the Type field, which offers Excel or Pdf options. The Excel export expects rows in CSV format and the PDF export accepts HTML code.
In the Template field use placeholders like {order.number} or {order.client.email}. The system will replace these keys with current values from the order when generating the export. You can find the complete list of available keys in the template documentation.
In the orders list, select the desired items and choose the bulk action Export. If you have at least one export created in the Exports section, the action allows you to choose the export name and download the export for the selected orders.
After saving a new export it appears in the exports list and is ready for use in bulk actions in the orders list. Thanks to templates and placeholders you can customize the export exactly to your needs.
