  1. Download operating-model.json, then open this Document Studio template. Choose Import business data, select the JSON file, choose purchases in Business data table and click Use table.
  2. The import appends a new typed table with all source columns. Use the listed fields for your report, edit its heading and remove unrelated sample blocks. Transfer any values needed by the original template into its fields explicitly; imported records do not replace or bind its sample line items.
  3. Save editable source to preserve the document project. Use the kit workbook in a spreadsheet application when you need its existing formulas, worksheets and chart layout.

Start with blank input tables

The ZIP contains a header-only CSV for every source table. Fill the fields using the kit schema, then open the CSV in the text and data editor or import it into a Studio. Open the completed operating workbook in a spreadsheet application to retain its native worksheets, formulas and chart layout.

Start with the expected results

Read the kit guide, follow each input’s import order, then compare your output with the reconciliation checks. Planning datasets do not imply that a platform can import them.
