#163 - The one with the UI5 Spreadsheet Importer (Marian Zeis) | SAP on Azure Video Podcast Unofficial SAP on Azure podcast

    • Technology

## Introduction

In episode 163 of our SAP on Azure video podcast we talk about Excel. When Christian Klein did the keynote on the DSAG Jahreskongress two weeks back, he put up a slide on the evolution of customers running their business. And one of the starting points was Excel! I would argue that even today there are probably very few customers that are not using Excel -- in addition to their SAP system. So integration is key. There are thousands of ways how Excel can work with SAP -- there is even a joke that every month a blog post is published that shows a new way. There is however one community project, the "UI5 Spreadsheet Importer" that is basically a component for UI5 which allows enables the bulk upload of data. For this we have Marian Zeis joining us today who will talk and show us more.
