[GNC] GnuCash: What scheduled transactions can't do

For some things I can't get Gnucash to do I just export transactions to 
CSV and then use Excel (and Power Query if needed) to get info in form I 
want it to be. I don't know whether scheduled items can be exported or 
not because I haven't set up any (I know what it is about, I just don't 
need to do it since payments usually are variable in amounts and/or are 
part of an import to checking or savings).
