Practical questions

Which version of Excel is required?

The target is Excel 2021 or Microsoft 365. The examples use modern functions. Platform-specific opening checks remain to be confirmed before purchase.

What language are the workbooks?

The website and current workbooks are in English. A French version is planned for a later stage.

What does the licence cover?

The in-house licence covers one entity and its corporate group. Practice and enterprise licences have different scopes and pricing on request. Full terms are set out in the licence.

Does the workbook file the return?

No. The workbook supports calculations and documentation. Data transfer and filing follow the procedures of the appropriate tax-preparation software.

Are the formulas protected?

Sheets are supplied without active protection. Cell lock flags allow protection to be enabled when needed. The conventions are explained in the workbook.

How is an edition obtained?

All three workbooks are in development, with launch targeted for November–December 2026. Samples can be reviewed now; sales are not yet open.
