Including grouping and summary information in MVC igGrid Excel export
posted

I've followed your Excel export example (http://samples.infragistics.com/jquery/infragistics-excel/create-excel-worksheet) and have managed to implement Excel exporting within our MVC3 application.

There has subsequently been a new requirement raised - is there a way to include the grouping and summary information on the exported spreadsheet?

Will this be a case of manually creating the groupings and summaries based on the data we have, or could you provide a more elegant solution?

Thanks

    hi,

    this is currently not possible out of the box. In order to achieve this, you will need to write a lot of custom logic, because the grouping layout is created at client side, while the report (Excel/ PDF) - is generated on the server side, based on the records in the data source, which is usually flat. 

    We will consider this for a future release. Thanks,

    Angel
