Export Combined Scale Factor

Just noticed that there are several new (since I last checked) fields available to add to an exported txt file.

What is Coordinate Type? In the file I exported, some points say Current, others are blank.

Also, I tried exporting Combined Factor for each point, since I'm using an LDP. The exported numbers are way off, (I hope!) ranging from -1.68 to +0.87. If I check the scale factors in J-Field, they are much closer to 1.

Yes, the scale factor exports are in units of ppm.

Regarding Coordinate Types, "Current" indicates it is the currently selected (from the Processed Point Info screen) surveyed coordinate. If you export design points the value should be "Design". The Quick Start Guides provides more details about the different types of coordinates stored in the database:
