Issue during SAP report data transporting into spreadsheet data

[former_member195427]

Hi ,

We have a project in which a WBS element text was "Portside Funnel Support and Port & Stbd earlier . We have a custom report for man-hours deployment WBS element wise. I imported this report data for this WBS assigned project into excel via spreadsheet and the output is breaking once it comes to copy this WBS data. I dig on it and removed this ( " )  from WBS description and saved the project. I exported the data again and this time the output was copied successfully.

Now, I want to know the root cause of this issue. As how this WBS text is the reason for unsuccessful copying of data into Excel?

Kindly suggest.

Thanks.
