Report Maker Add-on for the exchange of parameters and results
Save valuable time by using the SimaPro Report Maker Add-on. With one click in MS Word or Excel, you can automatically update all graphs and tables copied from SimaPro.How does it work?
After installation of the Report Maker add-on, you get a SimaPro-ribbon in your MS-office products. Now you can right-click on any graph or table in the impact assessments in SimaPro and select copy item-descriptor. Paste this link to your report or sheet in MS Word or MS Excel. This link contains all necessary information to import and/or update the created figures and tables in your report. In your MS office product, in the SimaPro-tab you have several options to work with these descriptors. For example, you can update the underlying data for all graphs and tables at once. You might then change the layout of the graphs and tables in your office product and update only the data (the layout will remain the same).
EPDs and CO2 footprint
Report Maker offers the possibility to create own templates for environmental product declarations (EPD), Environmental Footprints or other recurring documents. Together with the COM-interface and other add-ons available for SimaPro Power, reports for many products can be created quickly and efficiently.
