Scheduled (Last Friday) Intermediate Sales

The Problem

Compiling the monthly sales report required significant manual work

Each month, the team had to manually gather sales figures, format the report, and email it to the manager. This repetitive task consumed many work hours and was prone to errors from manual handling.

The Solution

Reports are generated and delivered automatically on schedule

The monthly sales report is generated and sent automatically to the manager's email, reducing data compilation time and eliminating repetitive manual work.

How It Works

1

Runs automatically on the last Friday of every month

A recurrence trigger fires at a set time on the last Friday of each month β€” no one needs to remember to run it. The report is always generated and delivered before the weekend.

2

Fetch current month's sales records from SharePoint

The flow automatically filters the SharePoint list for all entries from the 1st of the current month onwards β€” no date input required.

3

Log monthly totals into a cumulative Excel tracker

Aggregated units sold and total revenue are written as a new row into salesByMonth.xlsx, building a running history month over month.

4

Export the Excel report as a PDF

The Excel file is read from SharePoint, copied to OneDrive, and converted to PDF β€” automatically, without opening any app.
