Overview

If required, you can export the report out of SAP BusinessObjects to your computer.  The export can be in various formats so that you can use the information in other systems, or share within your business etc.  


Please note that most reports are made up of more than one tab of information - these tabs are called "report tabs" and are located at the bottom of the report data:


When exporting report information, you can either export the information from just the current report tab, or from all of the report tabs that make up the report.


TIP:  When exported as an Excel file, all graphs become pictures.  This means you need to get your input controls and drill downs correct before you export so that your graphs are correct (or you can create your own using pivot graphs inside Excel).
