Looking for any previous exposure to achieve it.

Thanks in advance.

    Hi Neetu,

    As mentioned in Docs, you need to implement the ExportToExcelIGeneratedCustomExport interface, it changes to use OfficeIGeneratedWorkbookCustomExporter.

    With it, you can customize the menu you need.

    Please refer this Docs: [View:https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/unified-operations/dev-itpro/office-integration/customize-open-office-menu:750:50]

    and blog :[View:https://www.d365stuff.co/customdataentityopeninexcel/:750:50]

    If it is your own form (not MS standard), it is as simple as this:

    The only part that they did not complete will look like this:
