The Export to Table Format job in the Essbase web interface enables you to export a cube into Excel, in tabular format. Essbase generates flattened output from the cube into Excel. Exporting a cube in tabular format can facilitate moving and sharing data between Essbase and a relational source.

Exporting to table format requires at least Database Update application permission.

This exported tabular data is organized into columns with headers that Essbase can use to deploy a new multidimensional cube. See Export a Cube to Tabular Data.
