Dynamic title for Excel Tab's

Charity_K_Wilson

I have a report I've created, and I need to create dynamic names for the Excel Spreadsheets.

 

One group is based on where the Employee works.  I need the tab's to reflect the city the employee is located in.

 

Another group is based on the Team the Employee reports up to.  But I can't seem to figure out how to associate the data to the tab.  I've got the field labeled as "tab", something  @PuffinPanic recommended.  But it was late on a Friday so I may have misunderstood her!

Thanks for following up on this @caltang  . I definitely missed out some steps (it was late and had been a long week!) when I mentioned adding a 'tabs' field.

Like the essential bit about section breaks - you then get an option to select a field for the name of the sections. 

 

Sorry for confusing you @Charity_K_Wilson
