Cobalt Operations Team: Payroll register workbook
Payroll register workbook for Cobalt Operations Team. One worksheet with the 8 employee rows and the TOTAL row, the same values as payroll-register.csv. Amounts are stored as text with two decimals, so a net pay ending in a zero cent is not displayed short and cannot be silently re-rounded by a recalculation.

How to use this file for testing
“Cobalt Operations Team: Payroll register workbook” is a deterministic Novus Examples fixture for Data import. Realistic faker-generated datasets with documented schemas for testing import and ETL flows.
Documented properties for this file: 9 rows · 14 columns · 1 sheets. Compare results against paired or grouped companions on this page when present (clean↔damaged, searchable↔scanned, or format twins) so scores stay reproducible across runs.
Download the file once, keep the path stable in CI or local scripts, and treat the spec table as the contract: dimensions, seeds, field lists, and roles are intentional. Corrupt or invalid samples are labelled as such, expect parsers to fail loudly rather than silently accept them.
Document fixtures list their internal structure (pages, fields, tracked changes, embedded objects) in the spec table. Test extractors, converters, and OCR against that known structure, and compare searchable↔scanned or format-twin companions when present.
