What the Excel export contains

Every Excel export from Nordflow produces one .xlsx workbook with two sheets. You don’t choose between them — both are always in the file, and you pick whichever tab you need when you open the workbook.

The header sheet

One row per document, with the same kind of fields you see as columns in the overview: supplier, document type, document number, dates, payment type, totals, and a link back to the document image. This is the right sheet for questions like “show me all the invoices in this month”.

The lines sheet

One row per accounting line, with the line text, gross amount, net amount, debit account, MVA-code, project, cost center, dimensions, and the document number to link back to the header sheet. This is the right sheet for “what was actually bought”, or for breaking spend down by account or project.

When to export instead of just looking

The overview itself is fast enough for day-to-day questions. Reach for an export when:

Someone needs a list outside Nordflow — an auditor, a finance colleague, a project lead.
You need to pivot, sum, or chart the data — Excel handles that better than any list view.
You need a snapshot in time that won’t change as documents move through the flow.

Exports are also useful for reporting on documents before they have been booked into your accounting system.
