The Dataform CSV view is designed mainly for export/import purposes. This view allows you to predefine which Dataform field can be csv exported/imported, in which order, choose your own custom names for columns (which may be different from the field names) and add flexible input/output data (e.g. human readable dates, entry author info etc.). You may also define different export/import templates (different instances of the csv view) and via the view access permissions allow different roles/users access to a designated export/import instance.
