The issue you're experiencing seems to be related to how file names and extensions are handled in the German language environment. When exporting data using the "Open in Excel" action, the system may not append the .xlsx extension to the file name, which can cause Excel to misinterpret the file format.
.xlsx
Here are some steps to resolve or work around this issue:
Manually Add the File Extension: After downloading the file, rename it by adding the .xlsx extension. This will allow Excel to recognize and open the file correctly.
Check Regional Settings in Business Central: Ensure that the regional settings in Business Central are configured correctly for the German language. Misconfigured settings might affect how file names and extensions are generated.
Update Business Central: If you're using an older version of Business Central, consider updating to the latest cumulative update. Microsoft frequently addresses localization and language-specific issues in updates.
Customization: If this issue persists and significantly impacts your operations, you might explore customizing the "Open in Excel" functionality to ensure that file extensions are always appended, regardless of the language setting.
