Power BI Matrix Export to excel

Hi There,

 

I have a matrix setup in Power bi. The problem is the users need to export it to excel for formatting but when exporting the columns and rows are switched around. 

 

This is what the matrix looks like in Power BI:

But when I export to excel it looks like this:

As you can see the ValueDate_month and year are all now columns. How can I export this to show correctly?

 

Kind Regards,

@Annemie19 , I think it is typically data export not the formatted data export. You can try the tool suggested by @PaulDBrown .

Thanks a lot Paul, 

 

The users are exporting from the browser app. 

 

Is there no such solution for this?
