Excel output for BI Publisher is not populating certain fields of the report.  If output is run to PDF, or if in the Template Builder the Excel2000 option is selected, the output comes out correct.

Running the affected report with XDO debugging enabled may show errors in the generated log files such as the following:

Failed to parse '$77392.14' to a number.
Failed to parse '$3555.45' to a number.
Failed to parse '$92.05' to a number.
