Departures Export Data Definition (POST_STAY_EXPORT)

The Departures Export is automatically generated and transmitted to the application server during the End of Day procedure in OPERA. But this export can be manually run by selecting Miscellaneous>File Export>General or Configuration>External>Export Files. This export file is available on-demand to allow for external and local resources to produce more up to the minute information in case of an emergency.

File transfer can be completed via the OPERA OXI_HUB Interface, with an HTTP address that is set up for the export file (see Export Files for details).
