New Tell that to the Accounts.
Already had the stuff in a similar format for online app in the browser. Accountants and various other bean counters seem to only know Excel. The one advantage it does have is being able to go offline for an extended period of time.

Da boss doesn't quite comprehend though why I can't keep the users from doing stupid stuff within excel.
