Re: Sales figures required in excel format

Date: April 15th, 2016

Hope this memo finds you in good health. I request you to kindly send me the sales figures of our Beijing operation in an excel spreadsheet. The current format of the ledger account forms are posing difficulty for us in terms of use. You can easily download the software from our company's intranet and use it to make the excel spreadsheet. This will be of great help to us in analysing your numbers.

Thanking you in anticipation, and my aplogozies for this inconvenience.
