The import of data from excel functionality has been foreseen in a limited number of Tables of the Transmission of Data (TOD).
We only foresee it exceptionally on these simple categorisation tables as we did in SFC2014. It will not be extended to other tables.
The other tables in the TOD are not simple and contain a lot of logic and rules depending on the content of certain columns. For those Excel is not suited for data transfer.
If the Member State want to further automate the data input they will need to implement and use the SFC webservices. More information on the SFC2021 Webservices can be found here: https://sfc.ec.europa.eu/en/2021/webservices/information.
