Enterprise Data Analysis Beyond Excel's Limits

40+ hours/month across multiple business units automated

Manufacturing Operational Reporting

The Challenge

A Fortune 500 manufacturer’s finance and operations teams regularly exported datasets from SAP that exceeded Excel’s 1M+ row limits. Analysts spent days manually splitting files, building fragmented PivotTables, and reconciling numbers across business units. Critical monthly reporting was delayed, and decision-makers lacked timely insights.

Our Approach

We designed a fully automated end-to-end solution using RPA to extract data from SAP, followed by advanced VBA and Power Query to refresh connections, update PivotTables, and leverage the Data Model (Power Pivot) with DAX for complex calculations. Completed reports were automatically saved to SharePoint with email notifications containing direct links. The solution required no new software licenses and preserved the familiar Excel interface users already trusted.

The Outcome

40+ hours of manual work eliminated per month
End-to-end automation: SAP extract → Power Query → SharePoint delivery
Analysis of datasets far beyond Excel row limits
DAX-powered Data Model for advanced financial calculations
Deployed to 5+ business units with identical results
Zero manual steps. Zero additional licensing costs.
