When we were testing a project, which would require an Excel sheet as an input. The only validating mechanism of this whole file importing process was offered by Excel macro (validate against inputs' format, length and etc) and it was very limited.

I talked to developers and business analysts, they agreed due to budget no more work was going to spend on improving this issue.

As the current company policy, for every issue we raise, we need to provide a solution as well.

I do not think I should leave this issue as it is, what solutions are there?
