How to import xls in business central

Posted on by 20

I try to import a xls report (layout and data) and business central said me: "The layout file couldn't be imported. The Excel workbook doesn’t include a sheet named 'Data'. The workbook must include this sheet, and the sheet itself must include a table named 'Data'."

How can i upload it? I tried to add a tab with metadata reports but it still fails.

I have the same question (0)

    I guess you didn't use configuration package function correctly. Try to find more info using the below link
