CSV Files

In addition to viewing the CSV file, you can manipulate the report data after the report finishes processing.

When you export batch versions to CSV:

  • A CSV file is created in the PrintQueue directory.

  • A PDF file is created in the PrintQueue directory.

  • The CSV file displays in a spreadsheet program such as Microsoft Excel or Lotus 123, which launches automatically if you are running the batch version locally. If you are running the batch version on a server, select View CSV from the Oracle's JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Work With Servers (P986116) application to launch the spreadsheet application and view the file.

You can select to output reports to a CSV file from the following locations:

  • RDA for the report template.

  • RDA for the batch version.

  • Versions List at runtime.

Reports do not always export to other programs perfectly. For example, group sections with several one-character data fields might need some cleanup, such as justifying the data or deleting blank columns.
