    Hi Pranav, 
     
    Using ER to export data to an excel is a much more complex way to get to a solution and not the intent behind ER. In ER there are a string off variables that causes errors/warnings. Best practice is to use Datamanagement, if you are dealing with Custom Tables, create a data entity for that. Secondly after having a data entity, you can create a OpenInExcel Template, and upload it into F&O, making it easy to access from Excel by anyone with access.
     
    Your screenshot errors are unfortunately not specific to one step that is missing, but if I need to guess, it could be that your Tables/Fields classification is not set in your Excel Attachement.
     
    Kind regards, 
    Jaco

    I have simplified the use case for ease in understanding, but it is in fact on custom tables. I request experts to help in resolving the issue posted rather than providing alternatives.
     
    Thanks,

    if its just to export data why not use "Data management" workspace and use "Vendors V2" entity ?
