Now that the Wizard has been installed and configured this document will guide you through the following simple exercises:
1. Choose a Template/Mode and set up the Worksheet
2. Create new Addition using Data Entry form
3. Download Assets and create Addition Tax
Note- The screenshots are using Oracle Release 12 and Excel 2013.
