Using this option lets you to ignore the model configurations obsolete for the exported structure. Ignoring the obsolete configurations would save a bit your time while exporting your model structures into another information systems like ERP or PDM but, it also helps you to optimize the structures imported to the external system as the model configurations are not included in structures they does not belong to.
All Configurations Include all configurations of the models exported, in the process output.
All Top Level Configurations Include only main level of the model configurations from the source documents, in the process output. Using this option, the child configurations of the model configurations like for example the derived configurations are ignored in the export.

CUSTOMTOOLS Export Profile could work in association to a CUSTOMTOOLS script add-in. CUSTOMTOOLS script add-ins are maintained using the Manage Scripts feature located in the CUSTOMTOOLS Administration. The script add-ins are very flexible and they could be fully customized based on your needs.
