The **Article History - Export** (*Artikel Historie - Export*) shows all stock bookings of the articles in a JTL category – goods receipts, sales, corrections – for a chosen year or month. The data is read live from your JTL-Wawi. You can look at it as a table or download it as a CSV file.

## Before you start

- Your company needs a JTL connection, see [Connect JTL-Wawi](/jtl/jtl-connection.md).
- Your user needs the permission **JTL WaWi › Item History** – ask your administrator.

## Step by step

1. In the top bar open **JTL WaWi › Item History (CSV Export)** (*JTL WaWi › Artikel History (CSV-Export)*).
2. Choose the **Year** (*Jahr*). You can choose the current year and the two years before.
3. Choose the **Month** (*Monat*) or **All** (*Alle*) for the whole year. The previous month is preselected.
4. Click **Choose Category** (*Kategorie auswählen*). A window with your JTL category tree opens. Open the levels and click the category you want.
5. The table with the bookings appears. The chosen category is shown next to the button.
6. Optional: use **-- filter by article --** (*-- nach Artikel filtern --*) to show only one article.
7. Click **CSV-Download** to download the bookings as a CSV file.

!!! warning Choose a deep category
Start as deep in the category tree as possible. A large category creates a heavy load on your JTL database and can slow down your JTL-Wawi.

## Good to know / Troubleshooting

| Message | Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| **Keine Daten hinterlegt...** | Your company has no JTL connection | Create the connection, see [Connect JTL-Wawi](/jtl/jtl-connection.md) |
| **The amount of data is too large. Please use the CSV export directly!** (*Die Datenmenge ist zu groß. Bitte direkt den CSV-Export benutzen!*) | Too many bookings for the table view | Use **CSV-Download** or choose a deeper category |

The page only reads from JTL. Nothing is changed in JTL or in X-Sitter. For the booking history of the X-Sitter warehouse, see [Article history](/stock/article-history.md).
