8.5 Excel Add-In Forms and Parameters

Hello Everyone,

I was wondering if anyone has experienced and resolved the issue I am finding. I am working on an excel workbook that has tabs corresponding to each workflow step consisting of various forms.  These forms have parameter requirements. The request is to have the parameter dropdowns on each excel tab. The issue I am having is some of these form tabs have the same parameters. I am met with the popup, this parameter already exists when trying to introduce it a second time on a different tab.  I know you can set one parameter to work across the entire workbook however that is not what my client wants.  The only way around this that I have found so far is to make multiple copies of parameters within the Application however I would rather not have multiple parameters that are the exact same. The other option is to have a separate excel workbook for each Workflow task.

I find even setting the parameter to be used across the entire workbook to be a bit clunky.

Thanks in advance for the input!

Regards,

Anthony
