TOPIC:

Under agenda based reports, only two reports have options to download data as an excel sheet. Member Role Report, and Member Speech Report, only have html options. I'd really love to see an option to download these in a flat table format (.csv or .xlsx) given the same basis options. The html reports are useful, but not easy for analysis (driving a progress chart for example, and appending new data).

I've several times had to paste the html into a spreadsheet, and cleverly work it into a table, but this is still very time consuming. I imagine the table having all the same fields, and column orders as the html report, but with each data element in a dedicated cell having carriage returns scrubbed from the text. Optionally, if manual and project are actually separate fields in the database, then keeping them that way in separate cells would also be helpful for analysis (given that some projects are in multiple paths).

Thank you much for your consideration, and all you do to support our clubs. Please let me know if we can make this happen.

I will consider it when I get around to doing more with reports.  It will not be anytime soon, though.

I have moved your suggestion to our Improvement Suggestions section to make sure I see it again in the future.

If you are just collecting Pathways data, you can print the html to the screen, then cut-n-paste into an Excel sheet. With a little manipulation, you can work the sheet into the essential columns. I use this technique for quarterly VP-ED reports
