2. Excel Documents

Uploading excel documents can be done on the Documents page. It is important to note, Excel documents that are uploaded must contain a format that resembles our existing processing templatesfrom which we can process. This is to ensure a more accurate data extraction across the excel sheets and headers. When uploading a file, if the user does not choose a processing template, then the cargo will not automatically be created from the file - selecting a valid template is required for generating cargo records.
