Contacts containing custom fields - export target list

[vox789]

Hi
We added custom fields to the Contacts module using Studio.

Now we need to export target lists containing those contacts. Unfortunately, the exported CSV file does not contain custom fields.

Has anybody got an idea how export the complete contacts data in a target list?

Thank you for the reply and the link.

However, the topic of the mentioned link is a bit different. The link's topic is about exporting the contacts containing custom fields from SugarCRM into the contatcts.csv. In the current version 6.3.1 this issue already has been fixed. All added custom fields are also included in export, as well as import, really great.

My question now refers to exporting target lists containing contacts with custom fields. It would be great if anybody could help me.

Install our Free KINAMU Reporter in it's basic Edition. Define Report on Target Lists with the Contacts and exactly the fields you are looking for in the proper sequence and Format. Add a user selectable parameter for the target list and then export to CSV.

The outlined solution sounds great, Thanks Christian for the hint.

By the way, we also tested the KINAMU Outlook Conector that delivered good results.
