Import and Export 

Oro applications have import/export capabilities for their most critical features, specifically designed for daily operations that generate high amounts of data. These capabilities facilitate the seamless transfer of data into and out of the system, enabling users to efficiently manage their data and streamline their workflows. With these functionalities in place, users can easily import data into Oro applications from external sources or export data from Oro applications to other systems for further analysis or manipulation.
