You can open a CSV file with almost any program intended to work with data (MS Excel, MS Access, Lotus Office, for example). You can also import this file into any modern database.

The log file can save the following fields: Date/Time of ID scan, Full Name, Age, Gender, ID Number, City, State, Zip, Address, Date of Birth and Comments.

The log can be exported for all dates available or a certain period (such as a day or a week).
