Questions teams ask before they install.
The Microsoft-stack story only works if it stays simple, visible, and safe.
Do we need to rebuild our Excel process first?
No. SHVL should start with the workbook and inbox the team already uses. The first pass only asks for clearer tabs or ranges where the install genuinely depends on them.
Does this replace Outlook rules?
No. Outlook rules are useful for movement and labelling. SHVL is for the next layer: reading the request, drafting the first response, routing it, and logging what happened.
Will it act on live mail straight away?
No. The first install stays draft-first. The team reviews the first real outputs and only enables live handling from Control once the result looks right.
Where does the data live?
In the tools you connect. SHVL runs against Outlook, Excel, OneDrive, and SharePoint rather than importing a copied mailbox into SHVL.
