# Creating the Export File

Once Quantify is set up properly with all of the needed codes (refer to *[Quantify Data Changes and the Oracle Export File](/v1/docs/quantify-data-changes-and-the-oracle-export-file)*), you can begin exporting from the **Invoices** tab. You will notice an **Export Status** column, as well as a filter that enables you to only show exported or non-exported invoices.

To create the export file:

1. Select the Invoices to export.  
You can highlight multiple invoices (Ctrl-A to select all of them if your filter is set to **Not Exported**).
2. Click the **Export to Oracle** dropdown and select the **Export Selected Invoices to File**.

The *Export to File* dialog appears.

3. As necessary, highlight the name in the **File Name** text field and enter a new name.
4. Navigate to the location in which you want to save the export file and click **Save**.  
Quantify creates the export file and makes it available to be imported into Oracle.  
**Note:** You can set the default file save location in the [My Options dialog](/v1/docs/the-my-options-dialog) (click the **Tools** menu and select **My Options**). Quantify prompts to select this folder if it has not already been selected. This is useful when saving to a network location.

Once an Invoice has been exported, Quantify changes its status to Exported. If necessary, you can reset this by clicking the **Export to Oracle** menu and selecting **Set Selected Invoices to Not Exported**.
