How to automate when updated data is from different files

Hi all,

I have a chart showing the inventory of warehouses.  Usually the updated data is uploaded to a sharepoint daily, and the format of the files is the same as the original execl file.  Currently, I copy data from the latest file and paste it to the original data source and refresh the data set every day.  

Is there any way to automate the process?

 

Thank you!
