    PowerQuery is one of the most powerful tools that you can use for Excel and Power BI. In this tutorial, we teach you how to use it from scratch. First, we learn how to import multiple excel files into one for further analysis. Then, we learn how to clean up data in Power Query which is much faster than Excel. Finally, once the data is clean up, we upload it onto excel for further analysis using Pivot Tables. We also see how adding new data affects the analysis.

    Hi @KenjiExplains , Would you be kind to quickly guide me with this simple query: I have a Monthly report master sheet where the data is combined from multiple data report sheets in use of PQuery. The Master sheet columns started with Name of Staff, Prepared Dates, Number of prepared Documents, and location source of document. I want to extract specific columns and data from the master sheet and create a separate sheet table. I only want column of Prepared Dates, and Number of of Documents The number of Document column must be the total value or sum of figures for the same prepared date. The date sum value will auto update (no need to refresh) once the master sheet is updated with additional figures of prepared dates. Thanks for the help. - Jay
