Thanks to this thread it really was easier for me to create an Excel export with multiple sheets. What I found out was that you could use the following:

ArrayList list = new  ArrayList();
list.add(jp1); list.add(jp2);
exporter.setParameter(JRXlsExporterParameter.JASPER_PRINT_LIST, list);

and the exporter will automatically use every JasperPrint object to construct each sheet; also the name of the Jasper report (as specified in the jrxml file) is used as the name of each sheet.

Currently this solution works on my local project, so I just wanted to let you know.
