Take an .xlsx file uploaded to onedrive folder, perform multiple calculations and save as new files

Hi All! I have a pricelist in excel format. Filename "DRAGONWAR-PRICELIST.xlsx"  (image of data sample below) 

I save it to my onedrive into /root/DRAGONWAR/ folder. 
I want to create a power automate flow to:

 

1) TRIGGER when I have updated the DRAGONWAR-PRICELIST.xlsx file in /root/DRAGONWAR/ folder in onedrive. 

 

2) copy the same excel spreadsheet data to 3 new files;

"DRAGONWAR-PRICELIST-HQ.xlsx" in /root/DRAGONWAR/HQ/ folder, 

"DRAGONWAR-PRICELIST-MQ.xlsx" in /root/DRAGONWAR/MQ/ folder, and

"DRAGONWAR-PRICELIST-LQ.xlsx" in /root/DRAGONWAR/LQ/ folder

 

3) Perform calculation on "COST PRICE ex TAX" column in those three files folders (LQ, MQ, HQ), 

LQ - I want to increase cost price ex tax column pricing by 16% 

MQ - I want to increase cost price ex tax column pricing by 12% 

HQ - I want to increase cost price ex tax column pricing by 8% 

 

4) lastly, take those updated files and email all three of them to me. 

 

I'm struggling to understand how I take the data in a column and update with formula in excel file online with flow. Any suggestions?

    Hi @chrismensforth ,

     

    At present, actions in the Excel connector can only operate on data in the Excel table, so these data need to be stored in a defined table before we can operate on them.

    Please check the document and get more details about excel connector:

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-gb/connectors/excelonline/

    Besides, Excel formula is not supported in Power Automate, we cannot configure formula in Flow and apply it to the Excel table.

     

    Best Regards,
