Workbooks

Refer to these topics to manage workbooks:

The Workbooks tab allows you to manage workbooks in the Web Interface directly instead of using the Excel Add-in. You can utilize all of the regular Excel features within the workbook as well as the Excel Add-in features. Excel formulas are additionally supported in French or Spanish based off the chosen interface language.

Note

Workbook access roles are defined in the Security panel. Depending on your role, you may not have access to all features.
