If you are using the web version, the **file download will start automatically.**\
Then click **\[\[Save]]** to start generating the file.

### Quadra export

To export your entries in a format compatible with **Quadra**, go to the menu **Accounting > Import / Export > Exports > Quadra export.**\
At the end of the process, the generated file will be available in the **export directory** defined in your general settings and will contain **all entries from all your fiscal years.**<br>

{% hint style="success" %}
Since **Quadra only accepts two-character matching codes**, the matching codes exported in the file are automatically **recalculated** to comply with this format.
