Hi All,

I am able to export table data to excel dynamically, but some of the data like long numbers and negative values are formatted

Below is the UI Table data

exported data to CSV

when I select the long values it showing the proper value on top of excel, and -ve values are appended with '......

Code :

jQuery.sap.require("sap.ui.core.util.Export");
jQuery.sap.require("sap.ui.core.util.ExportTypeCSV");
sap.ui.define([
'jquery.sap.global',
'sap/ui/core/mvc/Controller',
'sap/ui/model/json/JSONModel'
], function(jQuery, Controller, JSONModel) {
"use strict";
var vSrcMATNR;
var oEvtBus = sap.ui.getCore().getEventBus();
var TableController = Controller.extend("UtilLoad.Util", {
exportToExcel: function(oTable) {
var that = this;
var aColumns = oTable.getColumns();
var aItems = oTable.getItems();
var aTemplate = [];
for (var i = 0; i < aColumns.length; i++) {
var oColumn = {
name: aColumns[i].getHeader().getText(),
template: {
content: {
path: null
}
}
};
if (aItems.length > 0) {
oColumn.template.content.path = aItems[0].getCells()[i].getBinding("text").getPath();
}
aTemplate.push(oColumn);
}
var oExport = new sap.ui.core.util.Export({
// Type that will be used to generate the content. Own ExportType’s can be created to support other formats
exportType: new sap.ui.core.util.ExportTypeCSV({
separatorChar : ",",
                charset : "utf-8"
}),
// Pass in the model created above
models: oTable.getModel(),
// binding information for the rows aggregation
rows: {
path: "/"
},
// column definitions with column name and binding info for the content
columns: aTemplate
});
oExport.saveFile().always(function() {
this.destroy();
});
},
fnDate: function(sDate) {
if (sDate) {
var oDateFormat = sap.ui.core.format.DateFormat.getDateTimeInstance({
pattern: "dd-MM-yyyy"
});
return oDateFormat.format(new Date(sDate));
} else {
return sDate;
}
}
});
return TableController;
});
