    Hi @Walter ,

    the header will probably be an object itself (DataView, Label, …).
    The "Export to Excel" Feature can only be applied to one object at the time, you cab't export several objects simultaneously to one excel sheet.

    To export several objects into one sheet you would need the "Export printable report" option in the screen menu

    where you will have the possibility to choose objects from the screen to be part of the "Print Area" of your target PDF, Word, …(but not Excel, I'm afraid).
    Be aware, however, to not use any alerts in DataViews to be exported. That can lead to unexpected colouring of your exported objects.

    Best,
    Helmut

    @Helmut Heimann thanks for your response.

    What about having a Time Stamp printed on the exported report?

    Hello @Helmut Heimann
    Do you know if this functionality is available in board 14?

    My company is currently using board 12.

    Thank you

    Hello @Walter ,

    I'm afraid that's not possible in B14, either.

    Creating an idea regarding this issue was the best you could do.

    Best,

    Hi @Walter ,

    the same rules apply there, too. Because it needs to be a specific object.

    If you opt for exporting a printable report, you'd get the possibility to add that information directly to the created PDF (as i.e. page numbering does).
