datalist export to excel is not properly formatted

Confluence User - 04 Feb, 2021

i have a data list with date and currency fields, when export to excel , it looks great until i try to make use of the currency column 

i need to explicity and manually convert each field to a number,  Secondly in excel , the data string is not recognized as a date in excel - they are both recognized as "General Format"

why is the exported data so useless out of the get go.? i need to use the data for summarization in excel as well as add total columns or so.

All export cell values are of string, you will need to format / post process them yourself for now.
