Hi JMST
If you used a Folder as your source, then all you need to do is drop the new Excel file into the same folder as the other Excel files and then hit "Refresh" in Power BI Desktop (Canvas view, not Power Query).
Otherwise, if you have published your Power BI report to a Workspace, you can go to Power BI Service and just hit refresh on the data set online.
Hope that makes sense 🙂

Hi JMST
If the data in the New Excel File is the same structure and format as the Old Excel Files, then it won't be an issue. But you need to explain to us how you combined the Old Excel Files together. Once you do this, we can better assist.
Thanks heaps!

Hi Theo!
Exactly, my files have the same structure. I combined the files geting the files from a folder with the option "Charge and Transform Data", and I add different transformations to the combined table. I want to add monthly a new file to my combine table avoiding repeat the data transformation.
Thanks!
