Hi! Is its possible to link an Excel file to a Business Object representation in the model?

Thank you.

Best regards,

You can add links to local and online URLs as a Property value in the Properties tab.

Examples:

file:///c:/path_to/mysheet.xls
htps://www.someplace.net/files/mysheet.xls

The link can be opened by double-clicking on the icon in the Properties table, but not on the object in the View.

More details in the Archi User Guide page 67, section "User Properties"

Not to a sheet. It is only a path to a file.
