Exporting Children

Modified on Tue, 18 Feb at 8:58 AM

Exporting child records simplifies tasks like record-keeping and data analysis. This article outlines the process for exporting information from our platform.

Things to Know:

The "Allow Access to Client Configuration & Import/Export Tool" setting determines whether a user can export child records.
Export Children – Exports all child records, including pets, family members, and vehicles (if applicable).
Export Filtered Children – Exports child records based on the locations selected in the location filter. This option is unavailable for accounts without a configured child type.

To export children:

1. Navigate to the Clients tab

2. Select the Manage Clients drop-down menu > Click the "Export Children / Export Filtered Children" option

3. A CSV file will be downloaded and saved to your device

This export will include the following data:

Column	Description
child_id	This is the ID of the pet/family member you have in your local database (needed for appointments, for future updates, etc). If you don't have a child_id you need to generate one.
client_id	This is the client's external ID. If your clients don't have a client_id, this will be blank
deleted	This column determines if the child should be deleted or not. "FALSE" to not delete the child or "TRUE" to delete the child
mytime_child_id	The internal MyTime ID of the child. MyTime provides this field for existing children.
mytime_client_id	The MyTime unique ID for the client
date_of_birth	Birthdate of the child
first_name	The first name of the child
gender	The gender of the child
last_name	The last name of the child
notes	Child notes found on the client's profile
