The main enhancement in version 2.47 is to upgrade the Batch Reports module to support creation of reports that can be loaded into programs like Excel. Using this report-type, we are able to manipulate the report data using the familiar formatting tools and data functions (sorting, filtering, etc.) of spreadsheet software; or, for more advanced reporting needs, the functionality of sql-based software.
