Can I process a batch of reports for different recipients in one session?

Yes. Upload multiple CSV files at once. Each file is processed independently against the same column removal list, producing one clean output per report.

Will this affect any of the figures or data in the report?

No. Only the columns you name are removed. Every value in every remaining column is preserved exactly as it appeared in the source report.

What if different reports in the same batch have slightly different column sets?

Column names that do not exist in a given file are silently ignored. A single removal list can be safely applied across reports with minor schema differences.

Is the output format compatible with Excel and email attachments?

Yes. Output files are standard UTF-8 CSV, which opens correctly in Excel, Google Sheets, and is universally accepted as an email attachment format.

Prepare Distribution-Ready CSV Reports by Removing Internal Columns

CSV reports generated for internal use contain columns that should never reach external stakeholders — draft commentary, internal cost codes, approval status flags, or system reference fields. Deliteful's CSV Remove Columns tool strips those columns by name so every distributed report contains exactly what the recipient should see, and nothing else.

Report distribution workflows have a persistent last-mile problem: the file that comes out of your reporting system is not the file you should be sending. Whether you are distributing a weekly performance report to department heads, a client-facing summary to an account, or a vendor reconciliation to a partner, the raw export almost always includes internal scaffolding columns that require manual removal before the file is appropriate to share. Doing this in Excel — open, select column, delete, save-as — is a low-skill but high-frequency task that adds up across a reporting cycle.

Deliteful removes named columns from every uploaded CSV in one pass. You can process an entire batch of reports simultaneously — one file per department or per client — applying the same internal column removal list to all of them. Row data and remaining column order are preserved exactly, so recipient-facing figures, labels, and totals are untouched.

How it works

1
Upload your report CSVs
Upload one or more CSV reports exported from your BI tool, spreadsheet, or reporting system.
2
List internal columns to remove
Enter the column names not appropriate for distribution — for example: internal_cost_code, draft_note, approval_status, system_ref.
3
Download and distribute
Receive clean CSVs containing only recipient-appropriate columns, ready to attach to emails or upload to a client portal.
