Exporting Returns

Use the Export feature to save one or more returns to a flash drive, hard disk drive or other storage media, or to transfer your returns from one computer to another.

You can export a return from either the Return Manager or from an open return. If you use Return Manager you can export more than one return at a time.

You must not rename an exported return in your Windows file directory. Renaming the file will prevent the possibility of importing it back into ATX.
