Steps
Navigate to Reports
Start by navigating to the report page. For this, go to your dashboard and click on reports. You will find this in the main navigation section. When the report page opens, you will see four tabs. These will include: Expense Reports Bank Statement Reports Income Reports Tax & Compliance.

Click New Report
Now you will find a green button for new reports on the top right corner of this page. You can click on this to start creating a new report. After clicking on this button, a new report generation panel will appear. It will show all available options for customisation of your export.

Select Your Date Range
From this new panel, you can select the date range for which you need to export your expenses. There are two ways for this: the first one is Quick Select financial quarters (Q1-Q4). Secondly, you can enter a custom date range manually. If you don't select either, all existing expense records will be included.

Filter by Category (Optional)
Another incredible feature that you can find here is that you can apply a filter. You can select your expense type from the category section, either personal or business. When you select the specific date range and category on those expenses in that duration and category will export.

Click the Excel Button
Once you have selected your expense range to be exported in the report panel, you will see multiple available formats. Click on the Excel green button to generate a report in Excel format.

Download and Analyse
Now you can download your desired expense report in an Excel file and use advanced features for analysis.

Preview Your Excel Report
Once downloaded, open the Excel file to see your expenses neatly organised and ready to use. Each expense entry will be listed with its relevant details such as date, category, amount, and description. From here you can apply Excel formulas, create pivot tables, build charts, or share the file with your accountant.

Troubleshooting
The Excel file won't open.
If the Excel file is not opening, please make sure you are using Excel 2010 or later. You can also opt for Google Sheets to open the file online.
Formulas are showing as text.
If you are seeing formulas in your file, you can press Ctrl+` (grave accent) to toggle formula view, or check your Excel settings.
Data appears misaligned
You might see that your date is misaligned to resolve this problem. You can use the 'Format as Table' feature or adjust column widths. Excel may need to auto-fit columns.
