Exported data missing header data from the gid

Answered
Matt Davis asked on April 23, 2018

We are continuing our evaluation to replace FlexMonster with the current silverlight implementation.
In exporting the data from the grid to an excel spreedsheet we have noticed a discrepancy with the output and what is in the export. There is no summary of filters and data points are missing
Is there a way to include what we want with the exported data (see attached screen shots)?

Hello Matt, 
Thank you for your question. Please find the information about extending exporting functionality here: https://www.flexmonster.com/doc/export-report/. You need to set showFilters property true so the pivot can export the filters to Excel. Here is the example: https://jsfiddle.net/petcnwsx/5/.
Please let us know if the issue is resolved.
Regards,
Dmytro

Hi Dmytro,
Thanks. I can see how that should work. Is there a prescribed way to add that into the existing export excel button provided by the tool bar?
Thanks,
Matt

Our recommended way to customize Toolbar functionality is to use beforetoolbarcreated event. For more details please refer to Customizing toolbar tutorial.
