Garmin Xero session question

Have not physically used my unit yet but was wondering when you send a session report via email or text do you have to send each session when you actually complete the session or can you send all recorded sessions indivdually when you finish shooting for the day.
Thanks

At the end of a day, you can send them individually via individual emails.

I found a difference in how the files sent differed when sending individual shot groups vs selecting multiple shot groups. Individual group files are sent as CSV format. Multiple groups the file format sent is XLSX. CSV files imported fine with the data as numbers. XSLX files imported the data formatted as text and required converting. Individual shot groups sent as CSV files contain a single "sheet". My initial efforts at converting those text values to numbers were crude and labor intensive.

Through discussions here and with Garmin tech support (most excellent service) we found a method for more easily doing those conversions. The tech support guy submitted the issue to tech group in the hope this might be rectified in future releases.

The multiple group XLSX files have each shot group as a different sheet within the XLSX file. I much prefer the latter as it takes a lot less work if I want (and usually do) to collect shot groups from a load workup into a common spreadsheet. The tradeoff is the extra work of doing the text > number conversions, which is still preferable to me.
