Morning, everyone.

This is the title of a schedule:

Liste des champs demandée pour extraction à plat des ventes

Does any have a clue about "extraction à plat"? The best I've come up with is that is looks like an IT term meaning the extraction of data, but I cannot see how this fits with my text.

Thanks in advance.
