When I download an excel report the first fields on the form are last, and the last fields are first. Does Jotform not have a way to report on the order of the fields as they are presented on the form?

I tried to copy the link and share the report with a co-worker, but it did not work when they tried to open it. Is said "not authorized"? Do they need a Jotform account in order to view a report?

Please help!
I am creating a simple inventory form which asks how many of each item they have.
But how can I get the totals (sum) from each column under all the responses for each question? For example, if I ask all the responders "how many of item A do you have?", I would like the Excel sheet to tally everyone's responses to that question at the bottom of the column. Same with all the columns.
It is great to see all the answers to the questions. But I need to see the responses aggregated and the totals reported. Also, is there a way to turn that summed up data into graphs and charts?
Thank you!

I just found out about this feature and I'm thrilled it's available. If I share the report link with others, can they pull the most recent data as of the time they download it, meaning anytime they need an updated report in real-time they can download it with that link, or is does the link only provide data for the moment in time that it was generated? I'm trying to provide real-time reporting to a colleague that he can access whenever he needs it. Alternatively, is there an option to schedule an updated report to be sent weekly for example?

I am trying to uderstand how best to collate my data. It is ideas not numbers that will be reported in the jotform I am sending around. About 20 people will input answers to about 10 questions on their experience.
What should I use to collate this info? It is not for public consumption nor will it be on a website... Just for internal use.
Thanks!

When I go to the "support" page, it opens it up in the same browser as my jotform builder. Is it possible to set it up so that the support stuff pops up in a new browser?

I'd like a way to switch rows and columns quickly...trying to generate sales in this COVID world and have uploaded hundreds of products, but when I download, they're going across rows instead of down a column.

Hi!
Into a form with questions that required to be qualified i.e. from 1 to 5, is it possible to get the average calculation of the answers of each one of them?
I mean, in each question (column) something at the bottom like "AVERAGE: #1: 5; #2: 7; #3:1; or maybe in percents values (#1: 20%; #2: 10%; #3: 40%; #4: 15%; #5: 15%) or simply the most selected value.
Thanks!

When exporting my data into Excel, it presents the fields horizontally. Is there a way to present the information in Excel so that it presents the fields vertically? Example:
Field 1 Field 2 Field 3
Want it like this:
Field 1
Field 2
Field 3
Thanks!

I have multiple forms. Part of the filled in items are everytime the same (name, email, stuff like that).
Can I change the order in the Excel reporting? For instance: I have 8 forms with different questions on each, but all have somewhere in the form a question about name and email. I want to generate excel reports for all 8 forms that I start everytime with the recurring data (name, email etc).
