Export & Reports
Export Overview

Export Overview

Every completed load plan in LOP can be exported as a professional document or data file for use outside the platform. Exports are designed to communicate loading instructions clearly to warehouse teams, provide calculation records for freight documentation, and integrate with your existing logistics systems.

Export Formats

LOP supports three export formats, each suited to a different purpose:

PDF Load Plan Report

A complete, professionally formatted document intended for printing and handoff to loading teams, customers, or plan documentation.

The PDF includes a cover page, summary statistics, 3D diagram views captured from the viewport, a grouped packing list table, a numbered loading sequence in the plan’s container order, with numbers continuing across containers and a separate by-height reference view, current layout findings with their calculation basis and scope, and a calculated securing plan per container. Three detail levels — Compact, Standard (default), and Detailed — are chosen in the export dialog; detail levels apply to the PDF only.

Best for: loading team instructions, customer handoffs, audit records, customs documentation

Excel Workbook

A structured multi-sheet spreadsheet designed for data analysis and integration with warehouse management and ERP systems.

The workbook contains four sheets: Summary (container stats, Space Utilization, scores), Packing List (item positions and rotations), Compliance (current layout findings), and Loading Sequence (ordered by load step).

Best for: WMS integration, data analysis, internal reporting, linking to order management workflows

Excel Report documentation →

CSV Packing List

A simple, flat CSV file with one row per item placement. Contains the minimal set of columns needed to identify each item, its position in the container, and its loading status.

Best for: system integration, data piping to custom tools, quick data extraction

Triggering an Export

Exports can be triggered from two places:

From the editor toolbar:

  1. Open a load plan in the editor
  2. Click the Export button in the top toolbar (or press Ctrl+E)
  3. Select the export format from the dropdown
  4. Configure export options (for PDF)
  5. Click Generate — the file downloads automatically

From the plan list:

  1. In the Load Plans page, find the plan
  2. Click the three-dot menu on the plan card
  3. Select Export → [format]

Validate shows the same current calculation that Standard/Detailed PDF and Excel print for their saved-layout snapshot. The documents calculate it when exported and state the saved stamp, UTC calculation time and scope. Compact PDF and CSV do not calculate findings; their placement data are not a validation verdict.

Multi-Container Plans

For plans with multiple containers, each export format handles multi-container data as follows:

  • PDF — one section per container, each with its own diagram views and packing list
  • Excel — the Packing List includes a Container column; the Loading Sequence follows the plan’s container order with step numbers continuing across containers
  • CSV — a Container column identifies which container each item is in

Export Language

PDF reports, Excel findings and a solve's notes in Excel follow your account's export language (English or Turkish). To change it, go to Settings → Preferences → Export Language. Excel headings stay in English; its AI analysis notes and older notes keep their stored text without translation.

The PDF export dialog does not offer a language override; set the export language in Preferences before exporting.

Accessibility of Exports

Exporting requires a paid plan. All three formats — PDF, Excel and CSV — are available on Professional and above. On the Free tier export is not available: you can build, solve, edit and share a plan, but generating a PDF, Excel or CSV file requires upgrading.
