SharePoint Excel Services

Excel Services is a server technology included in Microsoft SharePoint, starting in 2007, and continued into 2010. This shared service enables you to load, calculate, and display Excel workbooks on SharePoint. 

Using Excel Services, you can easily reuse and share Excel workbooks on Microsoft SharePoint portals and dashboards. For example, financial analysts, business planners, or engineers can create content in Excel and share it with others by using an SharePoint portal and dashboard—without writing custom code to share their information.

Here are some of the benefits to using Excel Services. Contact us for more information:
  • Using Excel Services, view live, interactive workbooks using only your web browser meaning you can save Excel workbooks and interact with them from within portal sites.
  • Interact with workbooks to explore and pivot on data, and analyze PivotTable reports and charts by using a browser.
  • Connect to external data sources either by embedding connection strings to external data sources in the workbook or by saving them centrally in a data connection library file.
  • Select specific cells in worksheets and choose to make viewable or viewable, when you save to Excel Services.
  • Use Microsoft Office SharePoint Server's filter Web Part to filter several Web  Parts (Excel Web Access and other types of Web Parts) together for optimization of your data.

    • However, you cannot use Excel Services to create workbooks. To author a workbook you must use Microsoft Office Excel 2007 or later.

    Excel Services also has a Web service. You can use Excel Web Services to load workbooks, set values in cells and ranges, refresh external data connections, calculate worksheets, and extract calculated results (including cell values, the entire calculated workbook, or a snapshot of the workbook).

    Excel Services supports UDFs, which you can use to extend the capabilities of Excel Calculation Services—for example, to implement custom calculation libraries or to read data from Web services and data sources that are not natively supported by Excel Services.

    Excel Services is designed to be a scalable, robust, enterprise-class server that provides feature and calculation fidelity with Excel.
