This webinar opened our 2022 series on spreadsheet review techniques. The techniques still apply. For our more recent work on model review, watch Financial model review pitfalls and how to avoid them.
In November 2021 the ICAEW published a thought leadership paper, How to Review a Spreadsheet. We contributed to the paper, and this webinar opened our series on the review techniques it covers that matter most in practice.
This first session is about sparklines, the small charts Excel draws inside a cell. It shows the different ways sparklines help you review a spreadsheet, with real examples of errors they helped us find.
