Simple onboarding Workflow

Hi everyone,

I m new to power automate, so i would like to create a flow where this flow will run everyday at 3am to check if there is any "resume approved" in recruitment excel status table which when i manually insert the "resume approved" then it will update in onboarding excel along with the employee information which stored in recruitment excel and it will check all the employee status table for example 20 resume approved yesterday then will update in onboarding excel only yesterday and for example today there is 10 resume approved then will ignore yesterday resume approved and only focusses on today resume approved and will update today resume approved information only in onboarding excel. and this process will so go on.

Please help beginner like me and please show example so that i have more understanding how flow works Thank you.

below is the flow i did.

    Hi @MuhammadNiyas 

     

    looking at the current flow, it would work but the problem would be as you said, if flow have 20 resumes approves yesterday and add those 20 records to onboarding excel, then it should not consider those 20 records when running today.

     

    So for that , one resolution would be to add one more condition before adding row to onboarding excel,

    I am assuming that there is a column in recruitment excel table which will be unique ID for each row where each row stands for the each employee detail.

    Currently i assume the recruitment excel table looks like below 🙂

    Nived_Nambiar_1-1699712740946.png

     

    So here i assume ID column is a unique id for each row 

     

    So here is onboarding excel table looks like:

    Nived_Nambiar_2-1699712827016.png

     

     

    So based on above, i would suggest to add a condition before adding the row to onboarding table 🙂

    something like below under Yes branch as per your flow 🙂

    expression used : 

    length(outputs('List_rows_present_in_a_table_2')?['body/value'])
     
    So overall logic of this flow would be it would be iterating through each row of recruitment table and checks if Status column of each row equals Resume Approved, if it is true, then it goes to Yes branch and then it checks if the same ID column value of each row of recruitment table is already present in onboarding table as well, That is done via using filter query as you see the above flow screenshot.
     
    Then it uses condition to check if the output of list rows of onboarding table is zero , if it is zero, it implies that no such row of that employee has been added to onboarding table so flow should add the employee details to onboarding table, else not 🙂
     
    Thus this way flow can be modified 🙂

    Hi @MuhammadNiyas 

     

    There is no error, the condition where status equals Resume Approved is false, this means status is not equal to Resume Approved for that particular row. So due to that it has skipped Yes branch and went through no branch 🙂

     

    Here you have to keep in mind that list rows will list all rows in that recruitment excel table and it will then iterating through it.

    You can check your onboarding excel whether any rows has been added or not 🙂
