Actually, it's a runtime check to see if it's available. The check tries to
load the template processor LedgerSMB::Template::XLS. If that fails (which
it will if Excel::Template::Plus isn't available) the buttons will be shown
with a state "disabled". This makes people aware the functionality should
be there and hopefully go about asking why it doesn't work for them. If the
buttons would be hidden, people wouldn't notice that the option can be
available.
Bye,
