Copy to clipboard not working when trying to copy data from aged receivable and aged payable to paste in excel. Also, there must be a button that should export it directly to excel (.xlsx).

Which Manager are you using, (i.e. desktop, server, or cloud), on which system (i.e. Linux, MacOS, Windows)?

What do you mean by “not working”? Please show screenshots if possible.

Cloudversion 25.11.02.3086 gives no error.

@moizahmed450 I will need to check but copy to clipboard is working in web-browsers only in secure context - it means either the app is running on localhost (desktop edition) or using `https` protocol.

> **[Clipboard - Web APIs | MDN](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Clipboard)**
>
> The Clipboard interface of the Clipboard API provides read and write access to the contents of the system clipboard.
> This allows a web application to implement cut, copy, and paste features.

If you are using server edition and accessing it remotely over plain `http` protocol, I will need to add some error message why it doesn’t work but that’s not Manager limitation. It’s how web-browsers work these days.

Found the solution, have updated my server from ip\_address to a domain name and configured for SSL for HTTPS. Now the copy to clipboard is working smoothly (adding data to clipboard as before). But, why it wasn’t a problem when i was using v25.2.9.xxxx or 25.2.10.xxxx version with http only. Well, it worked now.
