------------------------------------
External issue URL: https://github.com/apache/fineract/pull/6210
> Bulk import rejects .xlsx files (e.g. downloaded from Google Sheets)

>
> The bulk import endpoint
> ({{{}BulkImportWorkbookServiceImpl.importWorkbook{}}}) only accepts legacy
> {{.xls}} Excel files. Modern {{.xlsx}} files (e.g., exported from Google
> Sheets) are rejected with:
>
> {{error.msg.invalid.file.extension: Uploaded file extension is not
> recognized.}}
> Additionally, the implementation always uses {{{}HSSFWorkbook{}}}, which
> cannot parse {{.xlsx}} files.
> h2. Expected Behavior
> Support both {{.xls}} and {{.xlsx}} uploads by accepting the OOXML MIME type
> and using the appropriate workbook parser.
> h2. Verification
> Verified using {{POST /clients/uploadtemplate}} with a {{.xlsx}} file
> exported from Google Sheets. The file is accepted and parsed successfully,
> and the request proceeds to normal business validation.
