For example:  If you grouping using of DateTimeGroupDescription you should be able to format date as dd.MM.yyyy  instead of Apr-22

Resolution: You can use the GroupElementFormatting event to format the text in the GroupDescription elements. Please, note that the developer should add an own logic for formatting a date (for example you should take the year and month from another fields)

RadPivot prints only left columns and the columns placed on the right part of the control do not print

GroupDescriptions loose the Custom Name after dragging.

Drag the field contains date from field choicer control to Column data area. Then remove one of the sum field. The exception will thrown.

Workaround: Use the DLLs for NET2.0

Change the Decimal symbol/separator  to "," and run Excel export for the RadPivotGrid. Note that all "0,00" cells are displayed as "1" in Excel and all decimal values are displayed without decimal separator.

Another scenario is when you change the Format in the Regional settings to Russia. Then, when exporting data, the decimal separator for the GrandTotal column is not correct ".", instead of ",". However, for the data cells it is OK.

Workaround: If possible add the label filters with code
PropertyGroupDescription dateGroupDescription = new PropertyGroupDescription();
dateGroupDescription.PropertyName = "Date";

LabelGroupFilter filter = new LabelGroupFilter();
ComparisonCondition condition = new ComparisonCondition
{
    Condition = Telerik.Pivot.Core.Filtering.Comparison.IsGreaterThan,
    Than = new DateTime(2010, 6, 6)
};
filter.Condition = condition;
dateGroupDescription.GroupFilter = filter;

this.provider.RowGroupDescriptions.Add(dateGroupDescription);

Workaround: remove the localization provider before saving the layout and then add it back.

To reproduce: 

- Set the ExportFlatData property to true

- Export the grid using PivotExportToExcelML

Workaround:

Use the new PivotGridSpreadExport

The issue may manifest if aggregate descriptions are added on the pivot`s column axis and if their member does not return data.

Workaround:
public Form1()
{
    InitializeComponent();

    this.radPivotGrid1.GroupDescriptorElementCreating += radPivotGrid1_GroupDescriptorElementCreating;
}

private void radPivotGrid1_GroupDescriptorElementCreating(object sender, Telerik.WinControls.UI.GroupDescriptorElementCreatingEventArgs e)
{
    FieldInfo fi = e.GroupDescriptorElement.GetType().GetField("filterPopup", BindingFlags.Instance | System.Reflection.BindingFlags.NonPublic);
    fi.SetValue(e.GroupDescriptorElement, new MyPivotGroupFilterPopup(e.GroupDescriptorElement) { Visible = false });

    e.GroupDescriptorElement.SortDirectionArrow.Visibility = ElementVisibility.Collapsed;
}

public class MyPivotGroupFilterPopup : PivotGroupFilterPopup
    {
        public MyPivotGroupFilterPopup(PivotGroupDescriptorElement pivotGroupDescriptorElement)
            : base(pivotGroupDescriptorElement)
        { }

        protected override void LoadSettings()
        {
            base.LoadSettings();

            this.Items.Remove(SortAZMenuItem);
            this.Items.Remove(SortZAMenuItem);
            this.Items.Remove(SortOptionsMenuItem);
        }
    }

How to reproduce: check the attached project and select an item from the drop-down list

The best solution would be to have cells in Excel with the correct data type and formatted values. This can be achieved with an additional property similar to RadGridView. At the moment data cells which are created from aggregate descriptions with an applied StringFormat property are exported as text and they do not persist the formatting which is not correct.

 A possible workaround is to set the ExportVisualSettings property of the PivotGridSpreadExport object to true so that the formatting event to fire. Then in the CellFormatting event one can set the FormatString this way:
        private void SpreadExport_CellFormatting(object sender, PivotGridSpreadExportCellFormattingEventArgs e)
        {
            if (e.Cell.Text.StartsWith("$"))
            {
                e.Cell.FormatString = "$ #.00";
            }
            else if (e.Cell.Text.Contains("€"))
            {
                e.Cell.FormatString = "#.00 €";
            }
        }

PivotGridSpreadExportCellFormattingEventArgs, however, does not provide information about the actual aggregate of the data cell, so the applied number format on the aggregate cannot be obtained in the formatting event.

To reproduce:

private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    this.ordersTableAdapter.Fill(this.nwindDataSet.Orders);
    
    LocalDataSourceProvider dataProvider = new LocalDataSourceProvider(); 
    dataProvider.Culture = new System.Globalization.CultureInfo("ru-RU"); 
    dataProvider.ItemsSource = this.ordersBindingSource;

    dataProvider.BeginInit();
    dataProvider.RowGroupDescriptions.Add(new DateTimeGroupDescription() { PropertyName = "OrderDate", Step = DateTimeStep.Year, GroupComparer = new GroupNameComparer() });
    dataProvider.RowGroupDescriptions.Add(new DateTimeGroupDescription() { PropertyName = "OrderDate", Step = DateTimeStep.Quarter, GroupComparer = new GroupNameComparer() });
    dataProvider.RowGroupDescriptions.Add(new DateTimeGroupDescription() { PropertyName = "OrderDate", Step = DateTimeStep.Month, GroupComparer = new GroupNameComparer() });
    dataProvider.ColumnGroupDescriptions.Add(new PropertyGroupDescription() { PropertyName = "EmployeeID", GroupComparer = new GrandTotalComparer() });
    dataProvider.EndInit();

    dataProvider.BeginInit();
    dataProvider.AggregateDescriptions.Add(new PropertyAggregateDescription() { PropertyName = "Freight", AggregateFunction = AggregateFunctions.Sum });
    dataProvider.AggregateDescriptions.Add(new PropertyAggregateDescription() { PropertyName = "Freight", AggregateFunction = AggregateFunctions.Average });
    dataProvider.EndInit();

    this.radPivotGrid1.DataProvider = dataProvider;
}


Workaround:

CultureInfo russianCultureInfo = new System.Globalization.CultureInfo("ru-RU"); 
List<string> monthNames = DateTimeFormatInfo.CurrentInfo.MonthNames.ToList();

public Form1()
{
    InitializeComponent();
    this.radPivotGrid1.GroupDescriptorElementCreating += radPivotGrid1_GroupDescriptorElementCreating;
}

private void radPivotGrid1_GroupDescriptorElementCreating(object sender, GroupDescriptorElementCreatingEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.GroupDescriptorElement.Text == "Month")
    {
        e.GroupDescriptorElement.FilterPopup.PopupOpening -= FilterPopupPopupOpening;
        e.GroupDescriptorElement.FilterPopup.PopupOpening += FilterPopupPopupOpening;
    }
}

private void FilterPopupPopupOpening(object sender, CancelEventArgs args)
{
    PivotGroupFilterPopup popup = sender as PivotGroupFilterPopup;
    if (popup != null)
    {
        popup.TreeViewMenuItem.TreeElement.TreeView.NodeFormatting -= TreeView_NodeFormatting;
        popup.TreeViewMenuItem.TreeElement.TreeView.NodeFormatting += TreeView_NodeFormatting;
    }
}

private void TreeView_NodeFormatting(object sender, TreeNodeFormattingEventArgs e)
{
    DateTime date;
    int monthIndex = monthNames.IndexOf(e.Node.Text);
  
    if (monthIndex > -1)
    {
        e.Node.Text = russianCultureInfo.DateTimeFormat.MonthNames[monthIndex];
    }
}

To reproduce: 

Create a localization provider following the article - http://wwwsit.telerik.com/help/winforms/pivotgrid-localization-localization.html. When you start the app you will see that the PivotAggregateP0ofP1 is not used.

Workaround:

Use the formatting events to format the needed values - http://wwwsit.telerik.com/help/winforms/pivotgrid-formatting-appearance.html

To reproduce:
Resize some of the columns in PivotGrid and then export it with PivotExporttoExcelML. All columns in exported file have the same width.
Workaround:
Use PivotGridSpreadExport.
