Insert manual values
When you work in firesys with numerical figures in Excel, you can use what are called manual values. A manual value represents a data record that is transferred to the firesys MeetingPoint that is connected to Excel. This value can subsequently be used by all other Excel workbooks, for example for cross-file validation. In addition, you can use the "Master values history" button to display the history of your manual values.
