Version comparison - Excel list of all changes between 2 versions
R

We'd like the version comparison to also have the option to download a report with all differences in Excel for us to analyze, in the structure: Page number, Topic (surrounding key for the changed data element), Data element old, Data element new, (IF numeric: Delta between old and new value), and the column "Comment".
With reports that have more than 100 minor changes, this way it is easy for us to pick out the categories one-by-one and work through the changes efficiently.
It would be extremely nice, if we'd be able to re-upload that Excel output file to DataSnipper, and automatically place the "Comment" remark that we have placed in the Excel file, back on the PDF document to have a consistent approach with the other Version Comparison procedures that we would perform in DataSnipper solely.

That last part of the comments, is optional. We can also document the Excel output solely.

To give an example, let's say I've worked through the changes in my Excel, placed comments on every single change in the column Comment, and reupload the Excelfile into DataSnipper, the comments are automatically pasted at the location of the change. When I export the file from the VC screen in DataSnipper to PDF, these comments will be present in the PDF functionality, making it easy to review.
