Troubleshooting & FAQ

If Excel doesn't recognize the =FDN() formula, the add-in may not have loaded correctly. Restart Excel or reinstall the add-in from the Office Add-ins Store.

Excel displays this error when it does not recognize the =FDN() formula. This means the add-in is either not installed or has been disabled.
