Step 2: Filtering out dependencies from export
The second step of exporting content is selecting which item dependencies to ignore. This screen is different when exporting from SDL Tridion 2013 SP1 or later, or from SDL Tridion 2013 or earlier.
About this task
It is not necessary to filter out any dependencies, but the more dependencies you filter out, the less time the export takes. As long as you know that the dependent items you are filtering are present on the destination Content Manager and you do not want to update them, feel free to filter them.
