It's not quite clear for me what do you want to do. The easiest way would be just to store the tables during the the load with something like this:

store Table into Table.qvd (qvd);

store Table into Table.csv (txt);

as Marcus wrote you can use the store command to store datas into txt-file.

store table into [lib:libname/filename,txt] (txt);

with this you can store one table into one file.

You can join tables, calculate fields or whatever you want in script and store the result in file.

As you wrote in the header:qvs is for script, although it is only a text-file, readable by any editor.

Is it that you want to export the Script, rather than any of the data, to a file?

I seem to recall that rwunderlich‌ created something that could export the script, but I don't know if that can be triggered on a load.

See this thread for a discussion on it, and a link to download the extension:

How can I save a Qlik Sense Server script?

You could modify the extension, I suppose, so that it runs each time the extension is rendered rather than waiting for a button click - but you would still need to navigate to the sheet with the extension on it.

Hope that helps.
