Getting Off Spreadsheets: A Step-by-Step Guide for Comp Teams

If your comp process lives in spreadsheets, you already know the cost — payout errors, last-minute rebuilds, reps who don't trust the numbers. What's harder to see is how much of that has just become normal.

‍

64% of organizations had payout errors last year. 93% field rep inquiries every pay period. Most are still running comp on Excel.

‍

This session is the practical guide most comp teams never get. We'll walk through exactly how to sequence a move off spreadsheets: what to audit first, where transitions go wrong, how to run parallel without breaking anything, and how to build the internal case to make it happen.

‍

What you'll walk away with:

• A framework to map every spreadsheet, data source, and manual handoff you're running today
• A sequencing playbook — where to start and what to validate before you retire the spreadsheet
• A side-by-side look at spreadsheet ops vs. automated ops for a team of 100–400 payees
• The business case language to get the project greenlit

‍

Join us for a step-by-step look at how comp teams actually make the move.
