Report export in xlxs format has data format as text

Defect Fixed

Hi Team,

All reports when exported to xlxs format has data format for numeric values as text.

Can it be number because the users have to perform further analysis and it becomes a manual process for them to format the text to number.

Regards,

Syed

Hi,

I had this issue but getting rid of the thousand separator in the numerical field formatted is as a number in the export. Just FYI
