# Export Center

> Export your risk, control, and compliance data in Excel, Word, PowerPoint, or PDF format.

## Overview

The Export Center is your one-stop destination for getting data out of CORE and into the formats you need for reporting, committee packs, and regulatory submissions. Whether you need a detailed Excel register, a formatted Word report, a presentation-ready PowerPoint deck, or a PDF summary, the Export Center handles it all with a few clicks.

## How to use it

### Format tabs

The Export Center is organised into four tabs, one for each output format:

| Tab            | Best for                                                         |
| -------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Excel**      | Data analysis, offline filtering, and detailed register exports. |
| **Word**       | Narrative reports that need further editing or formatting.       |
| **PowerPoint** | Committee presentations and board packs.                         |
| **PDF**        | Final-form reports for distribution or archival.                 |

Select the tab that matches your intended use before configuring your export.

### Excel tab

The Excel tab is the most feature-rich and is divided into several sections:

#### Export Registers

Export the core registers from CORE as Excel workbooks. You can export:

* **Risks** — the full risk register or a filtered subset.
* **Controls** — all controls or a filtered subset.
* **Indicators** — key risk indicators and their current values.
* **Actions** — open and closed actions linked to risks and controls.

Use the filter dropdowns to scope the export:

* **Select Entities** — choose one or more legal entities to include.
* **Select Team** — restrict to a specific team.
* **Select Owner** — restrict to records owned by a specific individual.

Once your filters are set, click **Export** to generate and download the file.

#### Controls Report

Two variants are available:

* **Full** — a comprehensive export of all control data, including testing results, ownership, and linked risks.
* **Summary** — a condensed version suitable for management reporting, showing control status and key metrics without the granular detail.

#### Discussion Report

Exports a record of discussions and comments captured against risks, controls, or other elements. Useful for evidencing governance activity during audits.

### Word, PowerPoint, and PDF tabs

These tabs follow a similar pattern: select the report type, apply any relevant filters, and click **Export**. The available report types vary by format — for example, PowerPoint exports are typically structured as slide decks for board or committee presentations, while PDF exports produce finalised documents suitable for regulatory submission.

### Applying filters

Filters work consistently across all tabs:

* **Select Entities** — include one or more legal entities.
* **Select Team** — narrow to a specific team.
* **Select Owner** — narrow to a specific record owner.

Filters are retained as you switch between tabs within a single session, so you do not need to reapply them if you are exporting multiple formats for the same scope.

## Tips & Tricks

<Tip>
  When preparing for a quarterly committee meeting, use the **Select Entities** filter to scope your exports to the relevant entity, then export from Excel (for data packs), PowerPoint (for the presentation), and PDF (for the formal record) in a single session without resetting filters.
</Tip>

<Warning>
  Large exports — particularly full register exports across all entities — may take a moment to generate. Do not navigate away from the page while the export is processing, or the download may not complete.
</Warning>

<Note>
  The Export Center pulls live data from CORE. The exported file reflects the state of your registers at the time of export. If you need a point-in-time snapshot for audit purposes, note the date and time of the export and store the file accordingly.
