    Yes you can export to excel, but you will need to write code for excel automation.

    Hi faizguy84,

    Writing the code will work but is there any default way by which we can save the report as excel as we do it in RTC.

    Thanks & Regards,

    Yes, it is possible from the report interactive preview to export to Excel, Word and PDF. This functionality is not enabled by default for security reasons (it requires permissions for temporary files generated server-side). The report interactive preview dialog is available only in Internet Explorer.

    Use the 
    ShowReportViewerExportOptions
    parameter in the web.config file, see here for more details. This documentation is for the Beta release and this parameter applies both to the Web Client and NAV Portal Framework for Sharepoint.

    As mentioned by other members, in general you can generate the file server-side in C/AL and download it client side using File.Download as an another option.

    You are talking RTC Client, correct?

    Hi mdPartnerNL,

    Yes I am talking about Webclient and not the rtc client.
