Ingress & TCMSv3 Software - Exporting Data from Audit List to TXT and CSV format
Introduction
CSV file, also known as Comma Separated Values file, allows data to be saved in a table structured format. You can use this CSV file format to exchange data from a database or a spreadsheet between applications. Each line in a CSV file represents a record in the database, or a row in a spread sheet. Each field in a database record or cell in a spread sheet row is usually separated by a comma. However, you can use other characters to delimit a field, such as a tabulator character.
Benefit
FingerTec's Ingress & TCMSv3 software comes with a feature for exporting of Data from Audit List in either TXT or CSV format. These transaction data are the raw data output obtained from the terminal. You can use the raw data in the third party software or payroll system that requires TXT or CSV file format.
