Hi:

When an end user utilizes the "Edit in Excel" feature of Business Central and has "SUPER" user security rights, what's the best remedy for getting data to actually appear in Excel when data in fact isn't showing?

Thanks!

John

Can you provide some screenshots?
There are no errors? But there's no data?
Can you see this data in BC?

Is it because the company or environment that was opened is wrong?

Namaste

As per above problem Statement , Edit in Excel feature will work you have necessary permission sets .

Check this permission

Below example ,

I have opened General journal screen and selected edit in excel .

In excel at right side you will get Add-ins If excel addins are not there then install it

Sign-in with your BCE login

After Sign-in , I could retreive the data

If you feel answer as helpful , please verify the answer

Hello John,

If an end user with SUPER permissions uses the Edit in Excel feature but no data appears, the issue is usually not with security rights but with the Business Central Excel Add-in. Ensure the Excel add-in is properly installed and the user is signed in with the correct Business Central account. Try refreshing the connection one time.
