A number of example project files are added to the users 'My Documents\Gen.IT' folder during installation. The spreadsheets are provided in both vertical and horizontal formats – The vertical format will be used for the example below.


A Gen.IT project consists of one .ini file and one or more Excel files. By default these files have matching names, but this may be changed when editing a project from within Gen.IT. The enterprise license allows the use of more then one Excel file within a project.


Gen.IT reads all data from Excel spreadsheets. Spreadsheet tabs are specifically named to indicate the data type held within the tab.
