# dox42 Add-Ins

The dox42 Add-Ins extend your Microsoft Office applications with a dox42 ribbon. The provided functionalities enable you to automate document generation. This is especially helpful for creating regularly needed documents like reports, quotes, contracts etc.

With the dox42 Add-Ins you can create document templates and include the needed data from various data sources (Excel, SharePoint, D365 FSCM, D365 Dataverse | CE, D365 BC, SAP and many more). Afterwards, you and your colleagues can generate the needed documents with just a few clicks and are ready to go.

There are three dox42 Add-Ins available:

- dox42 Word Add-In
- dox42 PowerPoint Add-In
- dox42 Excel Add-In
