Part11Solutions - Excel Validation Tool
- 2. ❑ Due to their widespread availability and ease of use, spreadsheets often do not undergo a formal rigorous development process or formal methodology before they are released for production use. ❑ Studies show that spreadsheets contain a disproportionate level of errors as compared to other applications that undergo a formal Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC). ❑ Hence, it is important that a logic inspection be performed for spreadsheets similar to a software code review, so that all calculations and data flows are fully understood and tested before it is released to production. ❑ However, this can be very tedious and time consuming if done manually (which is why it is often not done).
- 3. ❑ The XLValidator Spreadsheet Validation Software performs a highly visual logic inspection of your spreadsheets and instantly highlights any errors, warnings or potential issues. ❑ It dramatically reduces the time and cost of spreadsheet validation by automatically generating specification documents and IQ/OQ protocols for your spreadsheets. ❑ The system is fully configurable to meet your validation procedures and needs, and can be implemented quickly and easily without the need for additional hardware or software.
