Export your contracts to a CSV file to analyse them in Excel or share them outside oboloo. This guide is for users with permission to export contract data.

Before you start

Only users whose role has the Export permission for Contract Management can see the Export button. To check your permissions, see Viewing Your Access Rights. If you need access, ask your system administrator.

Export your contracts

Open the Contracts page

Go to Contract Management > Contracts.

Click Export

Click Export above the Contract List table, next to Add New Contract. The file contract.csv downloads to your device.

📌 Important: The export ignores the table's filters, search and column choices. It always contains every Active contract, and never includes Unapproved, Rejected or Archived ones. Filter the file in Excel if you need a subset.

What happens next

  • One row per Active contract: with its ID, Contract Title, Description, reference, type, categories, location, department, Created By, Managed By and Supplier.

  • Documents and relationships: Expired Documents, Unapproved Documents and the parent/child relationship.

  • Values and dates: currency, estimated total and annual values, PO number, cost centre, start, end and notice period dates, termination and extension details, and Notice Given (Yes or No).

  • Custom fields: one column per contract summary custom field.

💡 Tip: To export which documents each contract has, use Export on Contract Management > Contract Compliance instead. See Using the Contract Compliance Report.

Troubleshooting

I can't see the Export button

Your role doesn't have the Export permission for Contract Management. Ask your system administrator to update your role.

The file has more contracts than my filtered table

The export doesn't use the table's filters or search. Filter the CSV after downloading it.

A contract is missing from the file

Only Active contracts are exported. Unapproved, Rejected and Archived contracts are left out. See Archive and Unarchive Contracts.
