workbook governance

The workbook governance tag on WindowsForum.com covers discussions about managing and controlling Excel workbooks, particularly in enterprise environments. Recent content highlights Microsoft's introduction of the COPILOT function in Excel, which integrates generative AI directly into the calculation engine as a native formula. This shift from side-pane AI to in-cell functions raises governance considerations for IT administrators and power users, including how to manage AI-driven recalculations, ensure data integrity, and maintain compliance within shared workbooks. The tag focuses on practical aspects of workbook governance such as version control, access permissions, and auditing of formula changes, especially as AI features become more embedded in Excel's core functionality.
