6. Spreadsheet exports

Last updated on Jun 30, 2026

Spreadsheet exports move Analyze data into Excel or Google Sheets for your own pivots, filtering, and calculations. They're more flexible than PDFs but less readable for a quick handover.

In the Analyze section, spreadsheet exports come out as XLS files, and they're available from two tabs:

Export What it contains Where
Audit Log XLS Every tracked entry and its comments, plus a summary and weather Audit Log tab
MAR XLS Medication administrations in the range MAR Reporting tab

The Dashboard tab doesn't export to a spreadsheet — it exports a PDF. Spreadsheet export appears when your plan includes exporting.

Exporting

  1. Open the Audit Log or MAR Reporting tab.
  2. Set your date range (and, on the Audit Log, your category filters and search).
  3. Click Export XLS.

The file reflects your current filters, so set them first.

What's in the Audit Log XLS

The workbook has a few sheets:

  • Overview — a per-category summary: Section, Category, Item, Frequency, and Duration (minutes).
  • All Data + Comments — one row per entry, with Date, Section, Category, Item, Duration, Author, the Note text, when the note was created, and — for edited comments — Edited By and Edited At.
  • Weather — daily pressure, temperature, humidity, precipitation, and moon phase for the range.

Dates and times

Dates and times use your profile's date and time format, shown in the profile's time zone — not a fixed ISO format. If you're combining exports across profiles in different time zones, keep that in mind: a "9pm" in one profile is a different absolute moment from "9pm" in another.

Common uses

  • Custom analysis — pull the audit log into a spreadsheet and pivot by category, time of day, or day of week to find patterns the standard charts don't show.
  • Sharing data — hand a colleague a spreadsheet they can sort and filter themselves.

Privacy reminder

Exports often contain identifying data (names, dates, descriptions). Treat them like any other sensitive document — encrypted storage, secure email, careful with cloud sync.

Limitations

  • No images or videos. Spreadsheets are text only.
  • No formatting applied. Excel won't apply profile colors or special formatting; it's plain data.

Common questions

  • Is there a JSON or API export? — Not for end users; the Analyze exports are PDF and XLS.
  • Can I schedule recurring exports? — Not currently — each export is on-demand.
  • Can a Guest export? — Yes for views they can see, when the plan includes exporting.
  • My export is empty. — Check your filters and date range — an over-narrow filter can return zero rows.
