Скачать или смотреть Quick Excel FIles Consolidation

When Netflix started scaling globally, one of its biggest challenges was consolidating massive amounts of data across multiple markets. Instead of relying on manual spreadsheets, they automated reporting — saving time and reducing costly errors. For finance teams everywhere, the lesson is the same: the faster you consolidate, the faster you can act.

A survey by Deloitte found that over 60% of finance professionals still rely on spreadsheets for critical reporting, but most admit it slows them down and introduces errors. The reliance on fragile formulas like VLOOKUPs creates unnecessary risks.

Many finance teams still rely on complex Excel formulas like VLOOKUPs to merge and clean data—but that approach is slow, error-prone, and hard to hand off to someone else without extra training. In this video, we show why Power Query is a game-changer: once it’s set up, no one needs to learn formulas or repeat manual steps. Just move the files into a folder, click refresh, and your reports update instantly. If you’ve ever wasted time maintaining fragile Excel formulas, this is the simple, seamless upgrade you’ve been looking for.

Here’s what you’ll learn:

Why manual formulas fail: time-consuming, error-prone, and hard to scale.
How Power Query simplifies consolidation: connect, transform, and refresh.
Practical use cases: trial balances, P&L statements, or multi-system data.
The efficiency payoff: set it up once, refresh forever.

As Bill Gates once said: “Automation applied to an efficient operation will magnify the efficiency.” Power Query does exactly that for finance.
