automate idea - wondering if this is the right way to go

Hey Gang,

 

First off, new to Power automate, but I do want to learn it.  I have an existing idea for an automation that I could use to to help me learn power automate.

 

I want to have several employees to use an excel sheet to enter their daily hours.  these hours could and usually would be assigned to different job numbers and job codes. *(IE)  Job number: 4000   1.5 hours    Design
                                                                                           4001 1.0 hours     Design

etc.  There could be several entries per day or just 1 entry for the Monday to Saturday work week.

 

When all the hours are entered for the day or even week, I want to automate the process of populating another excel work book that acts as the summary for all my people.  Entering all the data into a sortable table based on job number, hours, code, etc in some kind of formatted sheet.

 

Is power automate the right tool for something like this.  I know I could do it with a lot of VBA code, but I was hoping there was a more low code approach like this.

 

Thanks in advance

Terry
