export as multiple file types in one node

Is there a way to export a load plan in multiple file types (e.g. .txt and .xlsx) using one export hub in Automator?​​ I am trying to clean up a visual process because we had eight exports, four of which were the same load plan but in different file types. I want the names to be the same, just different file types.

    Hi Jon,
    It is not possible to export multiple file types, but you can create a group to improve the aesthetics from this . . .

    I generally find it is easier to finish the process design first, then select all the export elements, right click and select group.
    Regards, Steve,
