Excel
Microsoft Excel
• At a basic level, MS Excel is using for storing
information, analysing and sorting, and reporting.
It’s extremely popular in business because
spreadsheets are highly visual and fairly ease to
use.
• Some of the most common business uses of MS
Excel are for business analysis, managing human
resources, performance reporting, and operations
management. We know this for a fact after
analysing job data (using MS Excel).
Microsoft Excel
• 1.Business analysis is essentially using collected data
to inform decision making. Businesses naturally gather
data in their day-to-day activities, which may be data
on product sales, website traffic, spending on supplies,
insurance claims, etc.
• Business analysis is the activity of converting data into
something useful to the people who run the business.
For example, you could run a profitability report by the
day of the week. If the business always loses money on
a Sunday, then that’s information management could
use to make a decision (such as closing on Sundays).

• 2. People Management
• You may be surprised to learn that one of the top uses of
Excel in business is to manage people.
• MS Excel is a powerful way to organise information about
people, whether they are employees, customers,
supporters, or training attendees.
• Using Excel, personal information can be stored and
retrieved efficiently. A spreadsheet row or column can be
used for an individual record that may include information
like name, email address, employee start date, items
purchased, subscription status, and last contact.

• 3. Managing Operations
• Business activities can often involve quite complicated
logistics. Inventory flows need to be controlled so that you
can keep operations running smoothly – and without
overstocking on particular items. That means keeping
track of supplier and client transactions, listing critical
dates, and managing times and schedules.
• While Amazon uses sophisticated custom software for
operations management, MS Excel is an important tool for
many smaller businesses (or parts of larger businesses).
An advantage of Excel is that it’s relatively low tech,
allowing it to be used by many people and without the
risk of programming bugs.

• 4. Performance Reporting
• Performance monitoring and reporting is a specialised type of
business analysis that can be done effectively using MS Excel.
For example, many accountants still use Excel (partly because
it’s compatible with cloud-based accounting software).
• A common way to convert data into a performance report in
Excel is to create a pivot table. By inserting a pivot table and
linking it to data, you can extra useful information from the
dataset quickly. Pivot tables have numerous in-built functions
that allow for tasks such as counting and summing certain
types of data within the dataset.
Microsoft Excel
• 5. Office Administration
• Office administrators use Excel to enter and store much
of the data that’s subsequently used for accounting and
financial reporting, as well as business analysis and
performance reporting.
• Apart from recordkeeping, Excel is useful in office
administration for supporting day-to-day tasks such as
invoicing, paying bills, and contacting suppliers and
clients. It’s an all-purpose tool for keeping track of and
managing office activities.

• 6. Strategic Analysis
• With respect to uses of Excel, strategic analysis is
where business decisions are closely connected to
the data and formulas on spreadsheets. You apply
Excel to guide actions such as investments and
asset allocations.
• As an example, based on an Excel model, you may
decide to take out currency insurance. Spreadsheet
analysis is designed to inform business decisions in
a specific way.
Microsoft Excel
• 7. Project Management
• Although project managers have access to purpose-
built project management (PM) software, an Excel
Workbook is often an effective alternative.
• Projects are business activities that typically have a
budget and start and end dates. Project plans can
be placed into a workbook, which can then be used
to track progress and keep the project on schedule.
Microsoft Excel
• 8. Managing Programs
• Excel is a good platform for managing programs. It can
be adapted to handle the specific characteristics of a
given program. And, because MS Excel is widely known,
program records can easily be managed by multiple
people and, when the time comes, handed over to a
new manager.
• A program is like a project, but may be ongoing and can
depend on participation by users. MS Excel helps
managers allocate resources, keep track of progress,
and maintain participant records.
