Many times we need to import data through excel file in the business central / navision. We used to perform this kind of activity in the navision but we need to explore the thing in business central. So, i am trying to import data from excel file in the business central. I am using business central wave 1 2020 for the development.

Now, We will add a new list page to view imported data from excel.
