Import and live streaming

Hello,

Just started my first internship and I have never used power BI. I need to gather data from one excel, slice it and manipulate it a bit, then import it to another excel file. I need it to update live or as close as live as possible. I am wondering if that is possible and if so how do I do it. I need help on slicing as well. So the first excel file is the financial statments and I need to seperate the type of expenses and sum the different type of expenses. So I will have 5 different sums. I will then put these sums into a cell of a different excel file that has the other financial sums of past monthes and years. I was wondering if I changed the expenses on the first excel if it will change on the last excel as well. Still trying to just get the basics down but I want to know if what I want to do is even possible. 

Thanks,

 

John

    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    The role of powerbi is to display the visual operation, if you want to refresh to show the latest data, you can match the gateway configuration schedule refresh. What are your specific business requirements, can you provide screenshots of the desired results, etc. Convenient for me to answer you as soon as possible.
