What LibreOffice does¶
Guided SUSA tool journey
LibreOffice supports analyst workflow support. In this guide, you will use it to filter a copied CSV result and preserve an analyst-ready working output. The procedure and screenshots provide the practical reference; the surrounding context explains what to record and how to judge the result.
Tool guide at a glance¶
Filter a copied CSV result and preserve an analyst-ready working output.
Clearly labelled working copies and a separate controlled output directory.
A reproducible supporting result with input, transformation, output, and integrity context.
Evidence and safety
Keep original, working, and derived material separate. Treat links, archives, and files as untrusted when appropriate. Record the input identifier, tool version, relevant commands or settings, time and time zone, output location, and any errors or limitations as you work.

How the labs complement this guide
The Interactive Lab is a safe browser simulation for practising the workflow and validation logic. The Full Lab is an independent exercise for an isolated, authorised environment. Confirm the installed tool version and expected output before relying on either exercise in a real case.
