How to identify every change in an excel contract schedule between versions
- Step 1Save both versions of the contract schedule — Version A is your version; Version B is the counterparty's returned version.
- Step 2Upload and run the diff — Every cell in every sheet is compared. Changed cells are listed with old and new values.
- Step 3Share the change log with your legal team — The text summary shows every amendment clearly. No cell change goes unnoticed.
Frequently asked questions
What if the counterparty renumbered the rows?+
The diff is positional. Row insertions or deletions will show as large blocks of changes. Align the row structure before comparing if this is a concern.
Does it detect changes in formula logic (not just values)?+
Yes. If a formula was changed from =A2*1.1 to =A2*1.15, both the formula text and the resulting value difference are flagged.
Is this suitable for redline comparison of Excel schedules?+
The tool provides a cell-level change log. For Word-style redline markup of Excel content, use the diff report as a reference alongside the highlighted XLSX output.
