I have 2 excels spreadsheets, and want to create a single report from the information

Posted on by Community Power Pla... Microsoft Employee

I am collecting data for every request in two separate spreadsheets in excel.  One of the spreadsheets has all the part numbers that are impacted by a change and the other is the change order information.  I need to be able to pull one row from the change order file and multiple rows from the part file to populate some form of a template.  I have tried using excel to a word template with no success.  I was hoping that there is a way to use list in Sharepoint or some other way to pull my information together.  Any assistance would be apprecited.

 

Side question ... Can flow use an excel template?

    Hi @Anonymous ,

     

    First answer the side question, currently Flow supports Word Template but we are unable to use Excel template.

    If you want a similar feature to be supported by MS Flow, please consider submitting your suggestion on the ideas forum:

    https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/Flow-Ideas/idb-p/FlowIdeas

    In addition, according to your description, Flow needs to monitor the changes of data in the Excel table. Currently, this is also not supported, and no similar trigger is available.

    You could consider using SharePoint List, so you can use the actions contained in the SharePoint connector to try to achieve your needs.

     

    Best Regards,

    @v-bacao-msftI use a form to trigger the flow.  It is just the change number.Capture.JPGCapture 2.JPG
