POSTing to Wordpress admin_post, but need the code to run at INIT

I have a POST action I am using to create an XLS spreadsheet.



However, this spreadsheet won't create properly because if I put it within the POST action, when it runs, headers have already been sent.



So, I tried to put the XLS code into another function and then use another add_action to run it at INIT.



I put that add_action call within the POST action, but it doesn't work correctly.



I only want this function running at INIT if I am POSTing to it. I don't want it running no matter what/on every single INIT.



    function thexlsfunction() {

    //this is where the XLS code runs

    }







    function update_attendance_report_function() {

//this runs when I submit the form





    add_action('init', 'thexlsfunction');

    thexlsfunction();



    }



    add_action( 'admin_post_nopriv_attendance_report', 'update_attendance_report_function' );

    add_action( 'admin_post_attendance_report', 'update_attendance_report_function' );
