Article summary

Overview

Office Reports provides users the optional ability to publish reports built with Excel, Word, or PowerPoint to the Dynamic Planning cloud. The ability to publish and store reports in the cloud is a collaboration feature to make it easier to store your most common monthly reports in one place. Published reports can be downloaded by other users.

Setup

With the Setup subtask, you can create a template that acts as a placeholder for each report that will be published and made accessible to users. One template can be used for either an Excel Report, Word Report, or PowerPoint Report. Each template reserves a spot for just one report in the Dynamic Planning cloud.
