consider the following sentence:
Once all data are collected, it is exported as ...
I am not sure whether it is correct to use the word 'it' in this context?

I would not write it like that. You are confusing the count defintion of data and the non-count definition.
Either:
Once all data are collected, they are exported ...
Or:
Once the data is collected, it is exported ...
Don't mix them up.

Right, that's why I was asking for :) I use data as plural so I will go for they are exported. thanks a lot Aug 7, 2013 at 13:30
