Workbook Import

The Workbook Import feature allows users to bring Excel workbooks into the SEI Command Center. This functionality allows users to continue using their already-defined Excel layouts within a workbook with the added benefit of the workbook features.

Currently, the Excel formats that are supported for the Workbook Import feature are:

• CSV

• XLSM

• XLSX

• XLTX

The import will automatically convert the Excel Add-in features used in the Excel file into the corresponding workbook features. However, there are some features that are not still supported by the workbook:

• Reporting Tree

• Wild card filtering

• Prompts

Why use Workbook Import?

• Time Efficiency: Quickly import preexisting Excel reports without needing to recreate them from scratch.

• Seamless Analysis: Ensure continuity of analyses created with the Excel Add-in, as they will remain functional with the imported workbook.

• Enhanced Collaboration: After importing the Excel reports, it becomes more efficient to share workbooks across an organization.
