  • Hi kanth999  Turn off row subtotal and column subtotal.

     

    Considering you are tying export from power bi service. Use data with current layout:

     

     

    If turned off , total should not export to excel. Try, if not already applied.

     

    You may check the limitations below:

    For export from matrix visuals using Data with current layout, consider the following:

    • Matrices with columns and/or values but no rows are exported as having rows and/or values but no columns

    • Matrices with only one row and/or values but no columns are exported as table (no right border separator)

    • If the Switch values to rows formatting option is set to 'On' in Power BI for a table or matrix visual, the visual format is not preserved when data is exported to Excel

    • If the Row subtotals toggle is set to 'Off' in Power BI Desktop for a matrix visual, but the matrix visual has expanded and collapsed sections, exported data contains subtotals for rows. To work around this issue, use the Expand | All command from the visual's context menu.

     

    Check the last option and take necessary action on this.



    Hope this helps!!

    Hi kanth999 ,

     

    As shafiz_p said, you need to turn off row subtotal and column subtotal and then export the current layout.

    desktop:

    Service: 

    Excel: 

    Is your problem solved? Can you check the steps again?
