Add Ability to create Excel Workbook output in IPA Flows in Multi Tenant?

If you'd like to have the ability to create Excel Workbooks in IPA Process Flows, I've added an Enhancement Request to add this capability, and I'd appreciate your vote.

Thanks!

So two years and 27 votes later it looks like Infor never even considered this request and is now going to archive it. Hard to see what it takes to actually get a request reviewed, let alone adopted. Definitely disappointing.

Very disappointing

Agreed. There is a limited workaround. If you create a Report (User Folder) the "ExportToCSV" action can be invoked in a Landmark transaction to create a Report Document of the Excel output of the Report. You'd still have to retrieve the ReportDocument blob, and wouldn't have any formatting control of the resulting Excel doc though. But if all you need is an Excel doc with the generic table format (e.g. column filter header) this workaround might suffice.
