I have the same problem. I can view the transaction detail in the drill down viewer. But when I exported the report to Excel, the details disappears. I tried to process the report as an Excel file. It did not work then either. The probelm started when the new verson is installed

Sorry forgot to mention that when I view it in Drilldown viewer it has the columns there.

I am having a problem with the export of Financial and Transaction… I added a column for TAPL and ORMNSTRN and they do not export to Excel . I am on service pack 11 and tried to use a directory without any spaces as well as a excel file without any spaces and still not working. Has anyone had any issues like this? Thanks

Hi,

I have a client with issues downloading into excel pivot tables from the Drilldown viewer.

They are set up with program files (including excel 2007) on drive c:\ and data (including user profiles) on drive D:\. When they try to export to pivot tables they get a message that excel is not installed on drive D:\ and the export fails.

Their policy is not to install programs on data drives.

Any ideas on how to fix this?

Regards,

Geoff

We also experienced problem exporting to Excel. When using output format “Excel (XLS,XLSX)”, it works, but when using “Formatted Excel (XLS, XLSX)” it doesn’t, any idea? And what’s difference between these 2 output options?

So I’ll eat my words about not holding your breath. Good news. This is due to be fixed in Service Pack 10, which last week was due out ‘any minute’. Jan

I wouldn’t hold my breath on this getting fixed any time soon. I’ll see some FRx technical folks today and will ask. Meanwhile, I bet you could just change your default import export path in company information to a path that doesn’t have a space in it. Jan

We have similar problems trying to export to Excel. Your workaround is on the right track, because the problem occurs when there are spaces in the path to the .xls file. Unfortunately, in our case, there are spaces in the folder(s) where FRx is installed. So, just changing the name of the output file doesn’t help us.

The good news is that the file is actually created in the IO_Data folder – it’s just that Excel can’t “automatically” open it after it’s been exported. Annoying, but we can live with it until it’s fixed.
