Best practices & tips to get maximum value

• Start with a clean sample dataset included in the file to understand input format and avoid data-mapping errors.
• Use the built-in validation to prevent ambiguous competitor names—consistent labels preserve pivot integrity.
• When using macros, enable them only after reviewing the code. ProXlsx can remove or customize macros on request.
• Schedule a weekly refresh routine (manual or automated) to keep dashboards current—saves time in monthly reviews.
• If you need recurring imports from platforms, choose the hourly customization to automate CSV merges and normalization.

Common mistakes when buying or using templates — and how to avoid them

• Mistake: Buying a generic template that doesn’t match local Excel settings. Fix: Request Arabic-locale or 24/12 date format adjustments.
• Mistake: Overlooking data validation which causes inconsistent competitor names. Fix: Use the template’s dropdown lists and enforced naming rules.
• Mistake: Expecting enterprise reporting without customization. Fix: Opt for hourly customization to add imports and connectors.
