Users will be able to save their Excel workbooks as XML data.
Feature details
Users will now be able to save their Excel workbooks as XML data (.xml), either through the Save Excel or Close Excel action. This feature will be present as an option in the Document format list of both actions. It will be called: XML Data (*.xml).
To use this feature, the user works on an existing file that contains the XML map(s) that are needed to save/export the workbook as XML data. The save operation produces an .xml file with the extracted data in the location the user selects.
