## 1. Upload Your Chart of Accounts

Begin by uploading your MIP Chart of Accounts into the Tag Manager in PEX. More details [here](/administrator-guide/create-tags-for-exporter-app).

Once your Chart of Accounts is in PEX, let's access the app:

* Log in to [http://dashboard.pexcard.com/](http://dashboard.pexcard.com/?utm_source=support)
* Navigate to [Apps > Available](https://dashboard.pexcard.com/apps/available?utm_source=support)
* Locate **Exporter for MIP**.
* Click **More info** > **Install** > **Launch**.

<Note>
  **Note:**

  To install the exporter, you need to enable the following permissions: *Edit business settings & apps*, *Manage cardholder*, *View card transactions*. You can enable them in [My Profile -> Permissions](https://dashboard.pexcard.com/account/permissions?utm_source=support).
</Note>

## Configure format, timezone and dates

After the app launches:

<Steps>
  <Step>
    Select your report format: CSV or XLSX.
  </Step>

  <Step>
    Select your preferred timezone.
  </Step>

  <Step>
    Select the earliest transaction date you want to export to MIP using the date picker (up to 1 year ago).

    * You can leave it empty to default 1 year ago.
  </Step>

  <Step>
    Enter an end date or leave it blank.

</Steps>

## 2. Configure Purchases

You can export purchases to MIP.

* Enable "Export purchases?" to successfully export PEX purchases, which will update the toggle from grey to green.
* You can choose to sync all PEX purchases (regardless of approval status) or just approved (recommended).

Now map purchase data to MIP fields.

* There is a set of standard fields: Account, Amount, Date, Notes, Merchant.
  * The PEX source and PEX value are prepopulated for you but you can update them if needed.
  * We recommend mapping the Account field to the PEX source Tag. This enables the expense account to be dynamic for each purchase. In the PEX value column, select a tag that you previously created by following the instructions in the [Create Tags for Exporter app](/administrator-guide/create-tags-for-exporter-app) article.
* Rename fields to make them have the same names as in MIP.
  * As soon as you rename a field in one section, it is auto renamed in **all** sections (Export purchases?, Export transfers?, Export bill payments?, Export fees?).
* Add a new field(s).
  * As soon as you add a new field (e.g., Class), it (Class) appears in **all** sections (Export purchases?, Export transfers?, Export bill payments?, Export fees?).

## View History

The History tab shows you a list of prior exports including the date range selected, status, # transactions found, # transactions eligible, and # transactions exported.

<Frame>
  <img src="https://mintcdn.com/pextest/AsOtgC68beYkZbrU/images/administrator-guide/image-505.avif?fit=max&auto=format&n=AsOtgC68beYkZbrU&q=85&s=f5412888b6b0aa8f9f9bd893ffa6a001" alt="" width="1514" height="271" data-path="images/administrator-guide/image-505.avif" />
</Frame>

If you configured the app to export only approved transactions, # transactions eligible can differ from # transactions found. For example, you have 60 transactions found, but only 45 of them are approved and therefore only 45 are eligible for export.

## Download Export File

You will see a **Download** button in the Action column on the History tab once the export file can be downloaded. Click **Download** to download the file.

* If you selected a small date range with a low number of transactions, the export file should be ready for download in less than a minute. If the date range contains a large number of transactions, it may take a few minutes. Simply **refresh** the screen to get the latest update.
