Notes for Admins

Deprecated Support for Older Excel Formats

Two Excel report export format options (Excel 2000 and 2003) have been deprecated and are no longer supported. While existing reports using these older formats will retain their configurations for backward compatibility, you will no longer be able to select these formats for new report exports. Moving forward, there will be a single export option using the Excel 2007 format which offers improved performance and supports bigger worksheets.
