Hello there, Mouselette.

As mentioned by Ashleigh1 above, the current export behavior, where values in Excel files are stored as text and CSV files include a preceding accent character, is working as intended.

With that, we recommend sharing your insights directly with our product development team so they can review user concerns and consider enhancements to improve the program's functionality.

Here's how to send your feedback:

1. Navigate to the Gear icon.
2. Under the Profile column, select Feedback.
   
3. Share your suggestion, then click Next.

Please let us know if you have any additional questions or concerns related to QBO in this thread.
