Now when we export data from matrix visual in PBI Desktop to an Excel file - the 'Total' row does not get exported to Excel though that is visible in PBI Desktop. Please fix it.

Export subtotals and grant totals for a matrix is extremely importat for a report built on Power BI.
What you see should be what you get exported.

This is very important, make a fix for this error.
Users themselves cannot correctly calculate complex totals

Power BI runs reports, not for data dump. Total is a critical part of a report, a must have element. Please make it exportable.
Thank you!

Please include this. My firm's reporting metrics rely on PowerBI. This functional issue has caused a significant bottleneck, resulting in lower synergies awarded by the software. Clients not happy!

We also need this solved asap for matrices and flat tables. There are reports which have to be exported to Excel including totals. Thx.

Same when we export from Power BI Service, and not only matrix - plain tables should have this feature as well.

RE: Enable 'total row' also to be exported.

I am using Direct Query per client needs/request. Only one table is used for this instance. There are NO other tables or relationships.

I have 3 visuals on the screen:

A Slicer so the user can specify a date range, a Card to display the count of rows, and the Table visual to allow the user to see and export the data.

The data being exported is missing data (rows).

The count as displayed in the Card visual is correct (verified using SQL Server Management Studio).

The total rows for this scenario is 8,172.

When I export to CSV, the total row count is 8,155.

This data is need for reporting requirements per federal regulations.

It really needs to be accurate...and consistent.

I recommended the client use Power BI instead of Tableau.
