Load Data
After transformation, Power Query allows the result to be loaded into Excel.
Common destination:
Worksheet Table
The transformed data can then be used for:
- Formulas
- PivotTables
- Charts
- Reports
- Dashboards
Refresh
If the source data changes, use:
Data → Refresh All
Power Query reruns the query and applies the saved transformation steps to the updated source.
Example
Original source:
|
Product |
Sales |
|
Keyboard |
4000 |
|
Mouse |
5000 |
New source:
|
Product |
Sales |
|
Keyboard |
4500 |
|
Mouse |
5500 |
|
Monitor |
25500 |
After refresh, the query can bring the updated data into Excel using the same transformation process.
