by Excel is one of the most widely used computer programs on the planet, since its benefits are almost endless and allows those who use it to have absolute control of the data they enter there.
Only at the accounting level, it is an almost mandatory tool, and from then on there are many professions or trades that require this program or others that offer spreadsheets, to organize activities of all kinds, starting from the financial ones, to, why not, organizing a trip.
Despite how useful Excel is, there are people who do not understand how to operate it, since it requires some knowledge to be able to perform basic operations such as addition, subtraction, division or multiplication; however, and thanks to artificial intelligence, there is now a tool available with which anyone can generate formulas to help them in their work and present better results.
This is Excel Formulator, a tool based on this new technology that allows you to make much more advanced use of this software and put aside the feeling of frustration at not being able to move easily through said program.
On this platform you will only have to give the necessary instructions for the artificial intelligence to act and deliver what you requested; step to follow, the user must copy and paste it into Excel and you can start feeding the database with the information you have.
The indications can be of the type: add all the cells in column C, divide the result by 3 and multiply it by 4. Obviously, and due to your experience and your needs, much more complex matters may be required of you.
For those who believed that they could use this tool forever, its free version only allows you to generate 7 formulas per month, so you should be cautious when consulting it, since the monthly subscription is close to 6 dollars and the annual subscription to 54 dollars.
More than 60% of Colombians do not know how to use Excel, why is that a labor burden?
He boom The so-called fourth industrial revolution has not only implied a search for business digitization, but also for new skills in workers, from whom technical knowledge is expected, such as the ability to work in a group, tolerance or empathy.
While there is a discussion about whether soft skills (critical thinking, communication or empathy) can be taught or are innate, where there is consensus is the need to know how to use technological tools. It is no longer enough to know how to use word processors like Word or tools to make presentations like Power Point, it is increasingly necessary to know how to use spreadsheets like Excel or those offered by the Google package.
Spreadsheets have been tools that many associate only with economists, accountants or engineers, but more and more they are demonstrating their usefulness in different work areas and those who know how to use them clearly have a competitive advantage in the world of work.
Despite the massiveness of Excel, it is not fully used. A survey carried out by the Chilean company Ninja Excel indicates that 61% of Colombians do not handle the basic concepts of this tool, while only 7% have the necessary prior knowledge to start advanced training.
In Excel, you can complete from the most basic tasks (such as keeping a household’s accounting) to the most complex in multiple trades. From simple math calculations and graphs to management reports and multimedia options. Its functions manage to raise the results and information to enhance the productivity and efficiency of companies, especially in a time like the present, in which the handling of large volumes of data becomes increasingly necessary.
A magazine report Harvard Business Review indicates that company employees spend 10% of their working lives on spreadsheets.
