# How Do I Download the Excel Add-In?

## You will first need to go the Allocator Platform. Make sure that Excel is closed so that you can download the plug in (you may need your Administrator's permission)

Make sure all your Excel applications are closed.

Select the ‘Admin’ button in the top right hand corner, and select ‘Account’.
