# Archiving conference data after an event In Converia, various exports can be used to save data for archiving purposes, e.g. after the end of an event or before the end of the contract period. Which exports are required depends on the modules used and the respective retention purposes, e.g. legal retention periods for invoice documents. This article describes where event data can be exported in the system. In principle, only exports from the modules actually used are relevant. For example, no invoice export is required for free events. Exports that are important for archiving purposes are listed below. Other export options, such as participant lists for certain booking options or badge printing, are not covered in this article. ## Recommended standard exports for archiving purposes [Export bookings](#export-bookings) [Export invoices and payments](#export-invoices-and-payments) [Exporting papers to Excel](#exporting-contributions-to-excel) [Exporting the review results](#exporting-the-review-results) ## Person administration ### Export personal data records Management -> Person administration -> Person {% hint style="info" %} Filter: No filter setting required to export all data records. {% endhint %} * All personal data records for the event are exported with relevant personal data and any additional fields. * The only export that contains the account name if an account exists for the frontend.
