System Requirements

To run the Excel CI, basic system requirements are needed.

• Microsoft Excel version 2003 or greater installed on the local workstation.
• Macros enabled in Excel; the CI utility relies on macros to build the file for transmission to the National Finance Center (NFC).

Note: Microsoft Excel version 2003 has a limitation of 256 columns and 65,536 rows; however, if you are using Microsoft Excel version 2007 (or higher), the limitation is 16,384 columns and 1,048,576 rows.

Users should submit data input records in multiple of 1,000 to eliminate performance issues when using the CI utility.
