Exporting Data from CFS Live
Exporting People
- Navigate to Account.
- Click Download Data.
Notes on Export:
- The tables do not have column headers, you will need to add them.
- The Household ID and Family Status (h,s,d) are used to tie the tables together.
- To figure out the Family Status use this:

- Dependents are in the the Dependent table.
