Extraction

If you want to create your own purchase report which contains the exact information of your needs, you can create a pivot table. Your data is already in tabulated form - which means, that every single type of data is in separate columns, to ensure the data is compatible when generating a pivot table.

Click the tab Extraction in the purchase report, and click XLSX in the upper right corner. By this, a spreadsheet is generated for download, which can then be adjusted to your needs.

Most spreadsheets has a pivot function. It varies from sheet to sheet, how the pivot table is generated. You can do an internet search, by entering e.g. “Pivot table excel” into your search engine.
