To export reports

  1. Display the report you want to export.
  2. Click Print Preview. This ensures any report customisation will be reflected in the exported report.
  3. Go to the File menu and click Export. A list of file format options appears.
  4. Click a file format option you need:

    File formatDescription
    PDFPortable Document Format: Select the PDF option if you want to view or print the report later and keep the same format and appearance that's used in AccountRight. If you save a report as a PDF, the person who receives the report will need a PDF viewer, such as Adobe Reader, to view or print the report.
    Excel

    Microsoft Excel spreadsheet: Select the Excel option if you want to view the report in Microsoft Excel, or use Excel's features to further analyse the data. You can edit the default spreadsheet templates that AccountRight uses. If you save the report as an Excel document, the person who receives the document will need a program that can open Microsoft Excel spreadsheets, to view the report.

    You can only export a report as an Excel file if Microsoft Excel 2010 or later is installed. If you're exporting a custom report, the Export to Excel button is not available in the Index to Reports window, but you can export it after displaying the report.

    Using Office 365? Make sure Excel is installed on your computer and not accessed via a web browser.

    XPSXML Paper Specification: Select the XPS option if you don't need to edit the report and want to use the XPS Viewer provided with Windows to view or print the report.
    CSVComma-separated values text file: Select the CSV option to save a text file where all the report data is separated with commas. This is a file format that can be opened and edited by most spreadsheet programs.
    TSVTab-separated values text file: Select the TSV option to save a text file where all the report data is separated by tab characters. This is a file format that can be opened and edited by most spreadsheet programs.
  5. Depending on the report format you chose:

    • the Export report as window appears. Specify the file name and location, and then click Save.
    • the report is displayed in the selected program (such as Excel). Save the report in the program as you normally would.
