Can we bulk export sheets to PDF that are part of a report?

This question stems from a previous topic.

Given a report that pulls from 10 sheets (updated by different PM), can I bulk export all sheets to PDF so I can drop them in a Box folder for archiving with a weekly report summary?

Hi,

I'd recommend creating a recurring send out of the sheets or create reports for each sheet and send those out automatically with PDF file included. Someone would have to save them to a folder. It also could be possible to automate the part to collect them all in folders with a third-party service like Zapier or similar.

Would that work?

Hope that helps!

Is there a way to export multiple PDFs, from multiple rows, and in the same order of the rows?

You would use the below for Jan 2023 and adjust the month and year numbers accordingly for each of the other months.<\/p>

=IF(AND(MONTH([Start Date]@row)<= 1, YEAR([Start Date]@row)<= 2023, MONTH([End Date]@row)>= 1, YEAR([End Date]@row)>= 2023), [$ per month]@row)<\/p>"},{"commentID":387901,"body":"

Lets try a different approach.<\/p>

=IF(AND(VALUE(YEAR([Start Date]@row) + IF(MONTH(Start Date]@row)< 10, \"0\", \"//www.santa-greenland.com/community/discussion/57491/\") + MONTH([Start Date]@row))<= 202307<\/strong>, VALUE(YEAR([End Date]@row) + IF(MONTH([End Date]@row)< 10, \"0\", \"//www.santa-greenland.com/community/discussion/57491/\") + MONTH([End Date]@row))>= 202307<\/strong>), [$ per month]@row)<\/p>

<\/p>

Basically we are creating a yyyymm stamp from the start and end dates and comparing them to the yyyymm stamp for that year\/month combo. The above is for July 2023 (202307).<\/p>"},{"commentID":387906,"body":"

Hi Candace,<\/p>

The answer is YES. You can use \"Send as Attachment\" feature in the File menu of your sheet to setup the schedule for your need. You should be a licensed user to use this feature as well (I remembered that). <\/p>

Hope this works for you.<\/p>
