Export to xlsx or xlsb

Hi there,
Can we extract data to excel xlsx or xlsb (ECC 6), is there a specific setting to do it or SAP have not sorted out this question yet?
Thanks

From the thread
Re: Export to Excel Hangs
For exporting large tables to Microsoft Excel files:
- If you encounter problems, try adding the following line to the sqldeveloper.conf file to increase heap size and then restarting SQL Developer: AddVMOption -Xmx1024M
- If the number of table rows exceeds 65,536, SQL Developer writes the rows to multiple worksheets within the .xls file
But as an end-user, it's usually a losing battle trying to fight these virtual memory limit cases. Exporting to the csv file format also works fine, and Excel operates on those perfectly well. Just open it in Excel, then re-save it in xls format if you prefer.
Shutdown SQL Developer. Go to the bin directory in your SQL Developer installation. There you'll find the sqldeveloper.conf file. Add the line listed above. Restart SQL Developer and try again.
Again, we're actively investigating optimization solutions for our Excel exports (and imports.)

Is it possible to export to xlsx from code?

Hello!
Is it possible to export to xlsx from code rather than from a viewer with Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2010?
/regards

Gonna answer myself, solved it like this:
ExportOptions exportOpts = new ExportOptions();
            exportOpts.ExportFormatType =
               ExportFormatType.ExcelWorkbook;
            exportOpts.ExportDestinationType =
               ExportDestinationType.DiskFile;
            ExcelFormatOptions formatOpts = ExportOptions.CreateExcelFormatOptions();
            formatOpts.ExcelAreaType = AreaSectionKind.Detail;
            formatOpts.ExcelUseConstantColumnWidth = false;

SSRS XML Errors when exporting to .xlsx from Dynamics NAV Database

We use Dynamics NAV for our ERP and have many SSRS reports. We get xml Errors when exporting to Excel .xlsx. I've seen this happen since SQL 2008 R2 and have posted in many places trying to find an answer, but was hoping MS would solve the
issue. The numeric data types in the Dynamics NAV database are all decimal(38,20) and when the value is zero the Excel renderer throws the errors.
We now have over 400 reports and we export them to Excel 2003 format. I'm starting to feel like this is my new Y2K issue when Excel 2003 is set to sunset. I'm fearing that I'll have to do conversions on all numeric data types for all reports.
Both of these are Microsoft products so I'm wondering is this even on their radar.
We're running SQL Server 2012 SP2, and just rolled out CRM 2015 on SQL Server 2014. I get the errors in SSRS 2008R2, 2012, and 2014. Has anyone seen this before?

Hi Skywalker73,
According to your description, when you export the report to Excel, the error “Excel was able to open the file by repairing or removing the unreadable content.” throws out when opening the Excel file.
Based on my research, it has reported the same issue when exporting to Excel. The issue could cause by numeric columns has a precision of 16 or higher. To fix the issue, we could change data type in the table to a support lower precision, or convert
the numbers in the stored procedure that populates the report. For more information, please refer to this article:
SSRS 2012 Bug – “Excel found unreadable content”. Besides, please refer to this
article to check if non-printing characters exist in the report.
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

Webi Charts are not exported to xlsx format

Hi,
i set up a bi4.1 sp2 platform on a windows 2008 server.
With my former bi4.0 sp5 platforms i had the same issue:
webi document charts are not visible when the document is exported to the xlsx format.
i´im surprised i cańt find anything on the subject on the web.
am i missing something obvious?
thanks
xavier

When you open up the xlsx file, is there anything where the chart should be?
I'm thinking this might be an issue with your Excel or perhaps a security setting that prevents it from displaying properly.
If you create a chart in Excel and save it, does the chart display then and does it display if you reopen the file as well?

Josh

Export to xlsx with CR 2011

How do I export my report to xlsx? I do notice if I select the option "Microsoft Excel Workbook Data - only", that will give you xlsx file. Is that the only option I have to select to get the xlsx file extension?
I using crystal 2011. I only get the options Microsoft Excel(97-2003).

Correct, that is the only option.

"4.3.14 test pmt worksheet.pdf" failed to export to xlsx. There was an unexpected problem.

I got the above message when trying to convert a 235 page .pdf into an .XLSX document. How can I find out the error?

Hi Kate,
Sorry to hear you're having trouble. Does your document have renderable (selectable) text? If so, try turning off the 'Recognize text' option prior to converting your document.
Let us know how it goes!

Export report in xlsx with multiple tabs/sheets

Hi,
Using CR2011, can I export reports in excel which will have multiple sheets? I checked the forum but none seems answered.
Anyone want to help?
Thank you.

Hi Vijay,
If you're exporting to .xlsx, then unfortunately Crystal Reports won't create multiple sheets.
The newer version of Excel supports more than 65536 rows on one sheet.
Export to the older version of Excel if you wish to see multiple sheets.

Workflow for exporting xml from Excel and importing into table in InDesign

Hello,
I have worked out how to get data from a .xlsx into a table in InDesign. However, the workflow is still a little clunky and I am looking for way to automate the process further. My current workflow is as follows (files can be download here: http://visual360.co.uk/xml.zip)
xml is exported from .xlsx by mapping the schema (see what_I_get.xml)
assign tags to table and individual cells in InDesign
This is the clunky bit: edit the what_I_get.xml to:
remove the indentation (this seems necessary as otherwise when I get to stage 4, all the imported text is also indented)
add tag for table in InDesign (p10_table)
add tags for individual cells (p10_c11 etc.)
import the produced what_I_want.xml in the structure panel of InDesign.
Can anyone point me in the direction of how to automate step 3 above?
Thanks in advance,
Nick

Hi Mike,
Thanks very much for the reply. I am not at all familiar with XSL/XSLT. I have given it a quick google and it seems like it could be quite a steep learning curve to master. Maybe if I explain the whole context here, it may allow you to point me in the direction of a tutorial that provides a step by step approach to achieve my final goal. Alternatively, you may be able to suggest a whole new workflow.
I am in the process of updating this document: http://www.ncl.ac.uk/students/insessional/assets/documents/IS_Brochure_2014-15.pdf
The tables on pages 10-21 contain lots and lots of repeated information. We want the layout to in this format so that each group of students has all the information relevant to them on a single double spread. However, the challenge of using this approach is that it is very high maintenance to ensure the duplicated information is kept in sync - even using a copy / paste approach.
I was hoping to overcome this by using a single source of data (eg. a spreadsheet) which would then feed into the InDesign. This workflow seems to be overcomplicated by the apparent need to use xml as the "middle-man".
Ideally, I would like to press the export button in Excel and get this information into the the correct cells in the tables on pages 10-21 without a significant amount of manual labour - after all, my reasons for investigating an automated approach in the first place was to avoid the manual entering of data ie. the scope for error...
An alternative approach maybe to skip Excel altogether and just use .xml. However, I am not sure that this is possible as Indesign only seems to allow you to import each element once. Maybe you could correct me here...
I am happy to invest a certain amount of time in developing this approach as once it is in place, it will save a huge of proof-reading time year after year, especially as inconsistencies still persist despite our best efforts to weed them out.
If you could let me know your thoughts on this and maybe identify a tutorial that would help me, I would be extremely grateful.
Thanks again!
Nick

How can I schedule an export to excel format of an OBIEE Analysis or Dashboard to a local directory ?

Hello,
I would like to schedule with an agent some reports in OBIEE 11g that must be exported in excel format to a specific local directory.
There is a need for a group of OBIEE users to have a set of reports ready (exported in .xlsx) every morning.
Furthermore, if the previous scenario is possible then could I deliver a whole OBIEE Dashboard with the same way?
Any input will be appreciated.
Thank you in advance.

Hi,
As of now , we are not able to save the report in shared location in Linux /Unix.
Windows it is possible.

What if the excel sheet is exported from some other third party database and not explicitly generated on Windows? I know if we can export it to excel why can't we also export it to csv but what if that option is also not available.
Also what things do I need to take into account when I export a xlsx file to csv file. I mean I hope in no circumstances there would be a data loss.How about instead of of these "what ifs" and "I hopes" you tell us exactly what you have to work with and describe the real business problem. If you ask the wrong questions, you get the wrong answers.
You "hope" that there would be no data loss? Do you really think Excel would survive as a product, much less be the overwhelming dominant product of its type, if it screwed up something that fundamental? The only thing that will be lost is the formatting meta-data.

hi,
I am looking for a solution that can help me in some standard way to support xlsx support to my ECC6 EHP 4 System.
I want if alv is exported ( any alv report program) in excel it should generate xlsx file Office 2007 standard xlsx file to save.

Hi,
ALV export to XLSX format can be achieved using CL_SALV_TABLE and CL_BCS, This works with   ECC6 EHP5, not sure about EHP 4.
See the following code snippet to send email as XLSX attachement.
types:
     begin of lty_alv,
     end of lty_alv.
data: lt_alv type standard table of lty_alv.
data: lo_salv_table type ref to cl_salv_table.
select ... into table lt_alv .....................
cl_salv_table=>factory(
           IMPORTING r_salv_table = lo_salv_table
           CHANGING t_table = lt_alv ).

                           i_subject = 'Mail Subject goes here' ).
      lo_document->add_attachment( i_attachment_type = 'RAW' "XLS also can be used

      lo_bcs->send_request->set_link_to_outbox( abap_true ).
      lo_bcs->send( ).
      commit work.
Disadvantage of this method: if mail is opened within SAP Business workplace, it does not identify the file type as it support only 3 character identity as of now. External email clients can open the attachement properly. If you want to open the attachement within SAP, change attachement type to 'XLS' and remove the file extension from file name.

Export to PDF Issue (SSRS 2012 with Integration SharePoint 2013)

Problem Description: We have an operational report that returns around 43,000 records, based on a stored procedure. The Stored Procedure itself runs pretty quickly (under ~15 seconds).The report renders in 20 seconds.
However, we get an error like “Sorry, something went wrong” (see below) approximately 2 minutes after we choose/select the PDF as a rendering extension for export. The download of the .PDF never starts.

Things Also Done
1) I also tried exporting the report through excel and found no issues (it exports successfully and no issue when i open the file). The size of the exported excel (.xlsx) is 4.28MB. The timerendering value for export to excel is approx. 77 seconds.
2) I also tried creating email subscription (PDF as the rendering format) for that report and it works successfully. The size of the attached PDF from the email is approx. 1.43 MB. I can also open that PDF file with no issue. And the size of the email with
the attached PDF file is approx. 1.48 MB.
That all said, we would like to seek for your assistance to determine what is causing the failure of exporting the report to PDF issue directly from the reporting site. (Let me remind you that the email subscription for the same report with attached
PDF works with no issue)

Hi roel2000,
According to your description, you get error when exporting the report into PDF. It works properly when exporting in excel or PDF format within E-mail subscription. Right?
In Reporting Services, the Excel and MHTML(e-mail subscription) render extensions are soft page break renderers. The PDF render extension is hard page break renderer. It has different render behavior between these two kind of renders. This might cause the
error. Since we are not clear about your report structure, please refer to rules in the link below and do the troubleshooting.
Rendering Behaviors (Report Builder and SSRS)
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.
