    Dear Prashanth,

    Thank you for logging this issue on our community.

    Please consult the documentation below. You need to design the excel template, then Import the template. The framework then will populate the cells by reading the Excel file. Please check the task guide and let me know if you need any other information and I will be more than happy to assist further.

    Have a wonderful day!

    Dear Ursu

    I am bit confused to generate the Excel Format. Would you please let me know the steps:

    How to design the Excel Template and Import the Template.

    There are three Columns in Excel: CompanyName, CompanyAddress and CompanyTaxNumber.

    Please check the Excel File:

    CompanyInfoFormat.xlsx

    You can just select a line in excel and create named range "line", then inside of that line create 3 names ranges for each column, like "CompanyName", "CompanyAddress" and "CompanyTaxNumber", then upload it to R format and it should give you 2 level structure:

    Line

    -CompanyName

    -CompanyAddress

    -CompanyTaxNumber

    First of all, you do not ask multiple questions in one thread. If original questions is answered, mark answer (s) that helped you as verified to close the thread and open new one for new question.

    ER put data into rangers if they are mapped to individual fields and copy the range if it is mapped to records. So in your case just remove "line" range from Excel, move 3 named ranges you created before where you want to see your data and upload Excel as a template again.
