SESSION OUTLINE:
Sam Chatterjee will present on using Flow, Power Query, and Power BI to automate a process that uses data from flat files. Flat file systems are a necessity for many businesses to gather, store, and edit their data. This session illustrates how Flow can update old processes and fulfill the need for standardization with automation.
Sam will demonstrate how a Flow automation can enhance current processes. You will also learn how to extend this application using Power BI via Power Query, and ultimately display in Excel though implementation of a timed schedule. This can modernize the workflow for on-going processes with a prescribed time frame. Additionally, cloud services allow you to share the automation among users, and much more. All the examples will be shared and discussed during the session.
