Excel’s interactive slicers and filters cannot function when hosted online due to Microsoft’s web publishing architecture limitations, becoming non-functional static elements when embedded on websites.

Here’s how to deliver interactive online reporting with full slicer and filter functionality that website visitors can manipulate directly in their browsers.

Transform static Excel reports into interactive online experiences with Coefficient

Coefficientprovides a solution path for delivering interactive online reporting with full slicer and filter functionality. By transitioning to Google Sheets, you gain interactive elements that preserve functionality online.

How to make it work

Step 1. Transition your Excel reports to Google Sheets platform.

Migrate your Excel reports to Google Sheets, which maintains slicer and filter interactivity when web-published. This platform change is essential because Google Sheets preserves advanced filtering functionality that Excel loses online.

Step 2. Establish automated data connections using Coefficient.

Use Coefficient to create direct connections between your report data sources and Google Sheets, eliminating manual Excel updates. This ensures your online reports always reflect current data without file management overhead.

Step 3. Recreate interactive elements using Google Sheets’ native tools.

Rebuild your Excel slicers using Google Sheets’ filter views and pivot table slicers, which preserve functionality online. Create equivalent filtering mechanisms that work seamlessly when embedded on websites.

Step 4. Configure scheduled data refreshes for report currency.

Set up Coefficient’s scheduled imports to maintain report currency automatically. Choose from hourly, daily, or weekly updates to ensure website visitors always see current information.

Step 5. Publish reports with appropriate access controls.

Use Google Sheets’ publishing tools to make your reports accessible to website visitors. Slicers remain fully interactive without browser plugins, with mobile-optimized controls for tablet and phone access, supporting multiple simultaneous report viewers.
