Export to Excel keeping the layout #369
Comments
Hi @HELNLot! In the Power BI feature summary for May, they updated the API to include "file download": We are currently looking into this, and hopefully it will result in the visual being able to push all relevant information and metadata to a file in order to keep the layout, formatting and styling in an excel-file. That's the goal! However, it's too soon to say if and how it will work, but it's a feature that a lot of our users have requested, and that we ourselves are really interested in developing, so it's going to take top priority going forward! Best regards |
Hi @AndersAano, Typical impatient customer here! Just wondering if you can provide a high level update on this please? Appreciate the work you guys do. Thanks, Paul |
Hi @smitpau, We are currently doing some upgrades under the hood of the visual. It's a task that is estimated to take 1 - 2 months to finish, depending on how many issues we meet on the way. It's never fun to spend so much time on these upgrades, but it will allow us to speed up future development once it's done. The upgrade should help performance, as well as fix some issues we have when it comes to Column ID's, but mainly make it a lot easier to add new features afterwards. The features currently at the top of the list is:
Number 3 on that list has been there for a while, but we have met issues with Column IDs when trying to implement it. So to get that working, we needed to get this "Under the hood"-upgrade finished first. The goal with that has two parts.
Please know, I feel you, and I'm just as impatient to get these things finished, as they will be great improvements to the visual! ;) Best regards |
Hi @AndersAano, Great thanks, your detailed response is appreciated. Paul |
Hi, |
Hi @HELNLot Yes, this feature is close to being ready, and available in Beta! We still need to do some more testing, to make sure that it works with all possible combination of features, styles, format strings, and hierarchies and so on, but it looks really promising! Best regards |
@HELNLot @smitpau, check it out here: https://github.com/Profitbase/PowerBI-visuals-FinancialReportingMatrix/releases/tag/v7.0.0-rc1-4 Please read the information before testing! -Anders |
@AndersAano what you use for exporting the data? |
Hi @rakucmr -Anders |
@AndersAano And is working on PowerBI Desktop? |
I know that this has been discussed in ticket Export to Excel #55 and it was classified as enhancement but not planned for implementation. I think it was told then that this was not working in PowerBI standard matrix at the time and you were waiting for an API from Mirosoft.
Now I have noticed that this is now possible in PowerBI standard matrix so I'm wondering if you have been in touch with Microsoft regarding this. See attachment. Is there a plan for implementing this enhancement now?
Br, Helen
