If you wish to export time entries to Timeslips then you can ask support to install the "Timeslips Export" plugin into your system.

Warning

Only use this plugin if your are NOT currently using Actionstep for accounting and billing. Actionstep will create DRAFT invoices for each export inside Actionstep to remove the WIP and allow you to migrate to Actionstep accounting in the future.

From here you will be able to set filters to define which time records you wish to export. The filters work as an 'AND' operation. For example, if you set the timekeeper and matter then it will export records from the matter only for the selected timekeeper.

When you click "Export to CSV" it will email a CSV file to you and optionally to another email address. Once exported the records will be flagged in the database and will not be exported in subsequent exports unless you revert the export.

To revert an export set the filters and click "Revert Export". The reverted records will then be available for an export in the future.
