Microsoft Excel Add-in
The Add-in for Microsoft Excel is an easy way for social purpose organizations (SPOs) and social finance intermediaries (SFIs) to adopt the Common Impact Data Standard and create and share impact data capsules containing basic tier data. It is also an easy way to align with the Social Finance Fund companion module.
The Add-in was created by Common Approach to be used and shared freely through AppSource for Office 365. See the terms and conditions.
What can the Add-in do?
When used with an Excel workbook, the Add-in can import impact data capsules from users of the Add-in and other aligned tools (software or data utilities), and export impact data capsules that can be read by any aligned tools.
This makes impact data easier to share, removing the need to re-enter and re-format data for each recipient and saving time for those sending and receiving data. For specifications of the import and export capabilities, see the user guide.
What is the Add-in unable to do?
This Add-in is not intended to be an all-in-one impact measurement tool. It should be used in conjunction with other software for managing impact data. For more on suggested usage and compatibility, see the user guide.
How much does the Add-in cost?
The Add-in is free to use.
