Overview

XAVI Report Builder is a Claude Skill that transforms plain-English requests into fully formatted Excel financial reports powered by live XAVI formulas.

Instead of building reports cell by cell, simply describe the report you need—such as an Income Statement, Balance Sheet, Budget vs. Actual, or Executive Dashboard—and Claude generates the worksheet for you, complete with filter cells, live XAVI formulas, formatting, and a README worksheet explaining how the report works.

The generated reports remain fully editable and continue to retrieve live data from NetSuite through XAVI formulas.

Step 2: Describe the Report

Tell Claude what you'd like to build.

For example:

"Build a high-level Income Statement for FY2026."

Step 4: Let Claude Build the Report

Claude builds the report in several stages:

Creates the worksheet layout.
Adds report filters.
Inserts live XAVI formulas.
Prompts you to configure NetSuite filter values using the XAVI task pane.
Completes the report.
Generates a README worksheet documenting the formulas used.

Throughout the process, Claude explains the purpose of the formulas and reporting structure in plain English.

Before using a report for financial analysis, executive reporting, regulatory filings, or external distribution, always:

Verify the report layout.
Review the XAVI formulas.
Confirm report totals.
Validate the results against NetSuite.

The included README worksheet documents the generated formulas and report structure for future reference.
