Formulas in spreadsheets are the source of most errors. Long formulas can also be difficult to comprehend. So the ability to be able to find, analyse and break them down into understandable sections, to see how they are used and to be able to detect errors is critical.
We provide two tools to help Excel users create more reliable spreadsheet:
Formula viewer: An add-in to ComplyXL that allows you to explore the formulas in your spreadsheet. Formula Viewer is part of the Desktop, Professional and Enterprise editions of ComplyXL
Bounds Checking: Part of ComplyXL that gives the user the ability to zoom into changes outside an expected range
Spreadsheet Detective: Detect potential spreadsheet calculation errors and document workbooks
