How to Export the Tabular Utah Archaeology Site Report

Use Wildnote to create the Tabular UT Site Report with tags, calculated fields, and an excel document to merge them all together.

The Utah tabular report can be created by exporting the tagged data from the Part A, Part B and Feature forms, and then copying it into the Excel template that will merge the data into one spreadsheet ready to submit.
