Extract forms multiple choice responses into columns in Excel

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 2

My employees currently sign up for overtime by responding via email with the dates they want to sign up for.

I would like to automate this procedure by creating a monthly sign up sheet via Forms, within a Teams Channel, with all available dates using multiple choices. It would be one question with all the dates as multiple choices.

I have an excel spreadsheet with the dates in separate columns. I want the excel sheet to display the users name under each date selected. 

For example: if I selected 1/2 and 1/10, my name would populate in excel under the column named 1/2 and in the column named 1/10.

is this possible?

Also is there a way to simplify updating this on a monthly basis for someone who isn’t that savvy with power automate?

    So an option would be to use adaptive cards instead of MS Forms , as there is no possibility in MS Forms to display dates for each dynamically so user can select which days they have did overtime.
     
     
    Try using adaptive cards with power automate - that would be best
