Use this form to create configurator layout groups. A configurator layout group defines the file structure used to import or export data. When you create configurator layout groups, you must attach a configurator definition group to the layout group and define the layout. You can then assign the configurator layout group as an export or return layout group to a fiscal document type in the Export file layout group or Return file layout group field in the Fiscal document types form. You can also assign the configurator layout group as an export or return layout group to a customer or vendor method of payment in the Export layout group or Return layout group field in the Methods of payment - customers or Methods of payment - vendors form.
