Allow ESRS‑Required Table Structures to Be Exported from SRM for Final Reporting

There are mandatory tables under the ESRS information requirements (questions). ESRS requires specific table format. These tables must be exportable in table format into a Word document. 

ESRS formated tables are a crucial part of the ESRS report. Tables are part of the reporting process that is intention to do via SRM workflow. This workflow between reporting roles aims to help reporting process compared to totally manual process without SRM. 

Tables must be exportable in table format from SRM into Word document. 

If the tables cannot be exported to the Word document, there is no reason to input them at all into SRM. It would be atleast twice as much work to put them again into Word document after export manually. 
The tables must ablicable in ESRS required format in further visualization work /" last mile reporting" in exported Word document after SRM export.  

→ The current functionality does not allow producing the report in the SRM because ESRS formated tables are critical in reporting that is intention to do via SRM workflow when using it.
