Hi,

 

Thank you for sharing the info.

 

What I am looking is I have a separate excel spreadsheet which has data from Accounting department and I am also pulling the data from SQL server from various tables, so is there any way I can combine the data from these two different sources into one and then further can present my data in Power BI.

 

Thanks
