Stop using XLS

I have been told iFinance outputs reports as XLS and only accepts imports as XLS files. Please can we move on to XLSX files as Microsoft are tightening up on the use of them and they pose a security risk. We automatically quarantine XLS files now as lots of phishing attempts are made using them.

It is also considered a deprecated format.
