3.6 Auxiliary Functions

The console also includes several other common functions that are widely used across different modules. These functions provide convenience and efficiency for administrative operations.

3.6.1 Exporting and Importing

Exporting Data

All data views in the console can be exported and saved as electronic documents, including statistics, logs, policies, instant messages, emails, asset management, and more. Some modules may have slight differences in export functionality.

Export Current Page Records

Right-click in the data view and select Export → Export Current Page Records to export only the logs on the current page. By default, 20 records are displayed per page. Administrators can adjust this maximum per-page record count in Tools → Options → Console Settings → Log View.

Export All Matching Records

Right-click in the data view and select Export → Export All Matching Records to export all records that meet the current search or filter criteria.

Exported documents can be saved in three formats:

• Text file (.CSV)
• HTML file
• Excel file (.XLS), provided Microsoft Excel is installed.

Exporting/Importing Policies

Only the policy module supports import functionality. Exporting and importing policies helps administrators configure settings efficiently.

To export policies, select the desired policies, right-click, and choose Export or Export Selected Policies to save them as XML files:

• Export: Exports all policies of the current module for the selected computer(s) or user(s), excluding any inherited policies.
• Export Selected Policies: Exports only the selected policies, which can be one or multiple.

Select the target computer(s) or user(s), right-click, and choose Import to import the policy file. The imported policies must match the current policy type; otherwise, the import will fail. Once imported, policies take effect immediately.

3.6.2 Print and Print Preview

All data views in the console can be printed for record-keeping and future reference. By selecting the menu "File → Print," users can print operational statistics, reports, and logs. Selecting "File → Print Preview" allows users to preview the print layout.
