I'm uploading data from a folder with multiple excel files.
The files are all the same, cells A10:B10 are merged and have "Supplier" written and the name of the supplier is on cell D10
I import the files and then filter by the first column looking for "Supplier" and there are 5 files out of 50 that don't show after the filter.
I verified the original files and the word "Supplier" is in the same cells as the rest of the files but when I look for it in Power Query, the 5 files show null for the same cells. (the name of the supplier does appear in power query for all files)
Please Help
Are you saying that each files contents is the word "Supplier" which is in one of the merged cells A10:B10 (the entry will be in one of them even if the cells are merged)? That column C empty and that cell D10 has the name of the supplier in it, and that's it? Is there nothing else in the files? I think you need to provide a but more detail to get some help.
The file has more information, and I'm making several extractions from it.
Each file is a purchase order and I'm making a PBI of all of them togheter.
There is a list of items in cells a16:g32 (column A = item number, B =description, C = quantity, etc)
There is a project number in other set of cells, etc.
The issue is the files that don't show the supplier and I can't find a reason. I don't know why the info doesn't show in Power Query but can be seen in the original excel file.
I copied the cells A10:b10 from a working file and there was no change.
