An ASCII file is a file format that contains a lot of data from your design. It can be imported into other supporting software. ASCII files can be generated at Project level or Alternative level:
At Project Level
- At project level right click on the alternative you want to export select ASCII export.
- Then choose the type of data you wish to export – Quotation, Sales contract or Invoice basis.
- After confirming which file to export, the Information window will provide the file path it has been saved to.
At Alternative Level
- Click on Alternative in the Menu bar.
- Go to Export > Export quotation (ASCII) or Export > Export sales contract (ASCII)
. - After confirming which file to export, the Information window will provide the file path it has been saved to.
Please Note: if the options to export are greyed out, this means you need to contact your local Compusoft Support Team to get the ASCII extension added to your account.
