AbleCommerce Shopping Cart Software

I want to export items by vendor.
when i attempt this by selecting a merchant from the dropdown list, the end result is an export of
all items in the database

How do i just export items from a specific vendor.

Also, why is there no export option for Manufacturer?

Sounds reasonable, I have created a new enhancement request for this feature.
