Hi everybody,

How can we generate an Excel report from OpenERP using a template ?

I my case I have three sheets of data, just the first one that we fill, the other retrieve. I know that there are a few engine like Aeroo and Pentaho, but they doesn't take an excel file.

Suggest me an other module if exist. thank you in advance.

Best regards.

If you want create manually a report, you can create a simple csv file. Excel (or Calc if you love yourself) read the csv with no problem.

If you wanna use report engine, use Aeroo because is naturally integrated in Open/LibreOffice and you can use Calc to create the report.

If you want HERE you can find a my old example file. See how to insert code in the report

@SANOU when you insert a tag, in it you can put simple python code. Download aeroo sample module to understand how to insert and edit tag in odt file.

Yeah thanks @FRANCESCO my problem was with the "hyperlink" trick when dealing with .ods template !
