Summary: ExcelReader - empty files with footer
Key: NIFI-16336
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-16336
Project: Apache NiFi

Reporter: Philipp Korniets
Attachments: TestBook_20261109.xlsx,

ConvertRecord with ExcelReader with below setup:
sheetName=Valuation
startingRow = 5
Expect - either no flowfile to be generated or flowfile with full header row
and some value in the 3rd row in ID field.
However it skips all the headers except ID - because this is the only field
which has value within 10 rows. (Row Evaluation Strategy)

This behaviour breaks downstream processes like queryRecord which relies on
presence of certain fields.
There is a workaround to check the schema etc... but its different from the
behaviour we had in ConvertExcelToCSV processor.
