It's possible to export any of the charts displayed on the Chart tab into XLSX format if you wish. Of course, it's the data used to create the chart that is exported, not the chart itself. The resulting XLSX file can then be accessed in Excel like any other spread sheet and you can create your own charts in Excel using the same data used in the Charts tab.

 

At the bottom of the Charts tab you will see one or two small icons.

 

 

These are the export icons.

 

When you click the export icon an xlsx file will be created from the data used to display the charts you see on the tab. If there are two icons, the left hand one exports the data for the top chart, while the right hand one exports the data for the bottom chart. If there is only one export icon then it means there is only one set of data for both charts.

 

Depending on the browser you are using and how you have it set up, you may be asked to select a destination for the xlsx file, and be given the chance to alter the export file name

 

 

or the file may be automatically saved to a download folder. Either way, the file can then be opened in Excel or any other application that understands the xlsx format, and the data processed accordingly.

 

 

This is a screen grab of the Mac OS X version of OpenOffice working with an xlsx file exported from the CCS Supervisor App. In fact, if you look carefully you'll notice it's the same data used to create the chart in the screen shot of the Charts tab at the top of this page. We exported the data to xlsx format, saved the file to a disk and then copied it onto a MAC computer, which we opened in the OpenOffice application. This demonstrates nicely the huge flexibility the export option provides you, allowing you to easily spread data from the CCS Apps throughout your organisation.
