Description

We are trying to generate Excel and CSV file using rtf template.

Excel file needs to display parameters. When we enable to include parameter tags on datamodel.

It also gets included on the csv output. Due to this the csv file size increases as the parameter on csv is repeated for each row of data.

There should be an option to exclude parameter tag for csv as we are using the enable csv output option and would like it to work along with the excel which is based on RTF for the same data model.

Use Case and Business Need

Parameter tag cannot be switched off for csv as we need the parameters on the Excel output.

The parameters on the csv row by row is increasing the file size.

Either parameter should be disabled based on file format or should only appear once on the csv output

More details

Parameter tag cannot be switched off for csv as we need the parameters on the Excel output.

So there should be an option to disable parameter based on the file format.

    Much Needed! The CSV format will extract all the data which is included in the data model. Then what is the use of creating template. It should pick only the data which is mapped in the template.
