I think what you need is to make a template provider in the Admin section.
You can specify your document with your imported spreadsheet as the
template and from now on users will be able to create new documents using
this templates using the "Create" button at the top left

Hey everyone I am new to XWiki and the
forum...hopefully someone can help
me
out here.
*Issue:* How can I create a table on a wiki page that is based on an
imported Excel sheet? The import was done with the Office Importer to a
new
page in a pre-created space.
*Goal:* My goal here is to import my Excel spreadsheet that has product
information on multiple sheets. Then I would like to create a
product/model
page that will link back to the imported spreadsheet and dynamically create
a table for only the model I choose.
*Example:*
I have a spreadsheet called ProductX.xls. In that spreadsheet is a tab (or
sheet) for each model of Product X. Let's assume I have Model 1, 2, and 3.
Each model sheet has specific information for that model (manufacturer,
power, cooling, etc.)
Now I want to create a main page or space in my wiki called Product X. On
that page I will create links for Models 1, 2, and 3. When the user clicks
on one of the models it takes them to a page with a table of just the sheet
(from the imported excel file) for that particular model.
What I have done so far is to use the Excel Plugin and add a macro to the
page. This does almost what I want, but I don't want to have to edit a
spreadsheet every time I need to make changes. I want select users to be
able to edit the imported spreadsheet directly in the wiki without the need
to download the excel sheet, make changes, and re-upload. This is where
the
imported Excel sheet comes in. When I do the importer, it actually puts it
in a page and each sheet is editable. Perfect!, but I cannot figure out
how
to build another table based on these imported sheets on a new page.
Sorry for the long winded post, but I am really lost at this point on how I
can accomplish this or if it is even possible. Thanks in advance for any
help you may be able to offer.
