Format issue when export report from WRS to Excel

Alexsander — Thu, 31 Oct 2013 06:34:31 GMT

Hi,

I am experiencing format issue when I export my report from WRS to excel file.

My report has amount in Euro symbol and percentage in % symbol in the WRS (cube report). Note that both Euro symbol and % symbol are in the same column(field), but Euro symbol and % symbol are different row. This is what we need in WRS. but when we export the report from WRS to excel. both are showing in Euro symbol in the excel file. I guess since the first row is in Euro symbol, the second row also displays in Euro symbol instead of % symbol.

Could you please help me to resolve this issue please? Thanking you in advance.

Regards,

Alex

I think that you might be running into the issue from this SAS note:

47821 - Measures might be incorrectly formatted in OLAP-based SAS® Web Report Studio reports that are opened using the SAS® Add-In for Microsoft Office

This issue is fixed beginning with version 4.31_M1.
