Copy and paste directly into any Vena feature to extract the data you need in seconds, boosting self-sufficiency and accelerating everyday workflows.

    Operational Tables in Vena Unlock a New Level of Planning Flexibility

    Allow teams to create, edit, and manage relational data directly from Excel. Capture granular, contextual information that doesn’t belong in CubeFLEXTM models, while keeping it governed and centralized in Vena.

    Store shared drivers, enrich plans with operational context, and maintain a single source of truth. Read and write table data from existing or new Vena templates, combine multiple tables with CubeFLEXTM data in one view, and apply operational filters across both—enabling richer analysis, more detailed planning, and faster, more confident decisions across enterprise planning workflow.
