Description

I am currently using Oracle Analytics Cloud Version 5.9

When BI Publisher reports are bursted in excel, the tab names are defaulted to "Sheet1", "Sheet2", "Sheet3" and so on. 

It would be great if we can specify the tab names in the rtf template or while designing the report layout so when the reports are exported or bursted to excel, the tabs have meaningful names instead of generic/ default tab names.

Use Case and Business Need

The reports are currently bursted in excel with generic tab names "Sheet1", 'Sheet2", etc. Users have to understand the data to know what is on that excel tab. Whereas if there is a way to define tab1 as "Products", tab2 as "Sales", tab3 as "Customers", then it would be easy for users to know what the tab contains.

    There is a BIP tag to export the file with specific tab names.
