Xporter allows you to generate customized reports using your project data.

Using Xporter, you have the flexibility to create personalized report [Templates](https://docs.getxporter.app/space/XPORTERCLOUD/427622/Working+with+Templates) using Microsoft Word and Excel (Figure 2), which can then be uploaded directly to Jira.

Once uploaded, Xporter will populate your [Templates](https://store.getxporter.app/) with the selected data, allowing you to create reports tailored to your specific needs and [export them in different formats](https://docs.getxporter.app/space/XPORTERCLOUD/558450/Outputs+Matrix). 

This enables you to enhance your Jira reporting with a personalized look and feel, facilitating cross-team reporting.
