Yes, I used to do this all the time in SSRS.

 

Here is an article describing it in Paginated Reports, which I have just verified works as intended: https://www.sqlshack.com/exporting-ssrs-reports-to-multiple-worksheets-in-excel/

The following Microsoft doc suggests that it can be done (create an Excel file with multiple worksheets from one paginated report).  Does anyone have experience doing this?

Following up late:  One can use PBI Report Builder to create a paginated report that can export to multiple tab Excel file.

Hi @kumar27 

 

You can use DAX Studio to export tables to CSV files from Power BI Desktop. Go to Advanced > Export Data and choose CSV Files, then follow the steps in Export Data Wizard. This will export tables into separate csv files. You could use other tools or methods to combine them into multiple tabs of the same excel workbook.

you can copy entire table in the model view and paste it on the excel manually, export data from a visual in the options panel of the visual, or create a excel coneected to a BI dataset on power bi dataset , this will work as a power pivot with direct connection to the dataset.
