Pittsburgh Financial Professionals Discover How to Get the Most from Microsoft Excel

A recent survey indicates seventy-five percent of finance practitioners use spreadsheets for more than half their analytical work, but do users really know how to unleash the full power of these tools? Excel4apps, a provider of best-in-class Excel-based inquiry and reporting software for use with SAP and Oracle, has shared how to harness Microsoft (News - Alert) Excel's potential in a series of "Power Excel" webinars with expert Bill Jelen, host of MrExcel.com.

The Excel4apps webinars culminated this year with a Power Excel Seminar at the Pittsburgh Marriot City Center on Wednesday, November 12. Attendees of the CPE-credited event heard Jelen's latest advanced Excel tips and tricks, rceived his upcoming book, and were invited to a networking reception.

"We're pleased to bring Bill Jelen's expertise to our online audience and the Pittsburgh community," said Chris Meyer, President Americas and Europe, Excel4apps. "Like the experts at MrExcel.com, we know Excel is the lifeline for finance users, which is why Excel4apps uses it as the front-end to complex ERP systems in our flagship product, GL Wand, and other offerings."

Jelen, a former financial analyst, recognizes how Excel-based tools like GL Wand empower users, especially when the Excel investment is leveraged with continuing education.

"Our passion at MrExcel.com is to help users save time and create accurate, useful reports," said Jelen. "Excel4apps shares that commitment by helping users capitalize on SAP or Oracle (News - Alert) investment with Excel-based reporting."
