Run Export Wizard
Next you need to open Import /Export Wizard from toolbar, ribbon menu or context menu (appearing after right-clicking at selected goods).

Get File and Indicate Directory to Save It
Further, indicate filename and where exactly at your PC, the file with exported information should be placed after the process is finished.

You can also indicate whether you would like images to be physically exported and saved at local directory of your PC or you want to generate full image URL (useful for images transfer).

Select Attributes (Fields) to Be Added to Spreadsheet
You can chose what exactly columns you would like to see in your spreadsheet. For that you need to select from available in the left pane database fields the necessary ones and move them to the right pane with the buttons in the middle or using drag&drop.
