Hello Workiva Team,

I would like to request an enhancement related to importing content from Microsoft PowerPoint into Workiva.

Currently, when charts are imported or pasted from PowerPoint into Workiva Documents or Presentations, they are converted into static images. This prevents users from editing the chart data, labels, and formatting directly within Workiva.

Suggested Feature:
Enable charts imported from PowerPoint to be converted into native, fully editable Workiva charts, preserving:

• Underlying data

• Chart type (bar, line, pie, etc.)

• Labels and legends

• Formatting (as much as possible)

Use Case:
Teams frequently reuse charts from PowerPoint decks in regulatory reports, financial documents, and presentations. Having to recreate charts manually in Workiva is time-consuming and introduces risk of inconsistencies.

Business Impact:

• Significant productivity gains

• Reduction in manual rework and errors

• Improved data consistency across reports and presentations

• Stronger integration with existing Microsoft Office workflows

Additional Notes:
Ideally, this could work similarly to how Excel-linked data or embedded objects are handled, allowing users to either:

• Import as editable Workiva chart, or

• Maintain a link to the original source (optional)

Thank you for considering this enhancement.
