Hi @RhinoBane ,

 

You can put these excel files into the same folder, and go to Power BI Desktop, click Get Data-> Folder. You can directly combine them. Please refer to

Combine files (binaries) in Power BI Desktop - Power BI | Microsoft Learn

 

Or try to shape and combine data in Power Query after data is imported. Please refer to

Tutorial: Shape and combine data in Power BI Desktop - Power BI | Microsoft Learn

 

 

Best Regards,

Stephen Tao
