How does B2Win work?
B2Win is an easy to install tool, that will automatically copy your pre-defined report after saving it using ASCIF Device from the Baan server (UNIX / NT) to the local PC
![Page 5: From Baan to Excel, Word, PDF, HTML, XML & Notepad in one click!](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022033105/56813e40550346895da82757/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
6 File Formats, 3 conversion modes, Logo, background, Font and Orientation
Table – B2Win will clean all titles – Automatically or based on the configuration designed earlier for this report, and the result will be in a table format.
For every output format you choose, (Excel, Word, Notepad, PDF, HTML and XML) you have the possibility to receive the result in one of three modes:
In addition to these three modes, the company logo and the report background can be added to the generated document, the report Orientation and fonts can be changed. If you wish to use a logo that belongs to a different company than the current one, changing the company number will allow this.
As-Is – The report will be taken as-is into the chosen format. No fonts or configuration will be taken into account.
User-Defined – The report will be exported while a pre-defined macro will run directly after it.

Automatic Conversion
B2Win can automatically convert most reports into Excel and other tabular modes without any human intervention. B2Win uses a smart conversion tool that performs the following:
-Delete Titles that appear in every page-Delete headers that appear in every page and use them only once.-Recognize leading zeros
-Recognize the minus sign on the right side in Finance Reports
-Convert to the client’s date format, decimal symbol and thousand separator

If you have sub-headers, an irregular header, or a different delimiter than the standard “|” in Baan reports, you need additional formatting in order to allow better report conversion to Excel.
