Documenting spreadsheets
 

Does anyone have a template for documenting Excel spreadsheets ? The sort of
information I am wanting to record is :

1. The specification of the report.
2. The sponsor of the report
3. The owner of the report
4. The generator of the report
5. How the report is generated
6. The frequency the report is generated
7. The recipient of the report
8. The actions the recipient takes as a result of data contained within the
report
9. The benefits arising from these actions.

The aim is that carrying out this exercise will cover the €œwhat if I go
under a bus ?€� issues, but will also promote some reports from an ad-hoc
status to ones that can become KPIs for the group.

TIA
John.
