These QUERYs can be conveniently configured to incorporate related file structure and related QUERYs to support distributed use and to minimize maintenance required in distributed cases Environments for creating and editing QUERYs in Excel for SQL (used with MS Access and SQL Server), and for M (used with PowerQuery).PowerOpI provides automation for local and multi-user distributed use, supporting:Ĭreating and editing data connections between Excel and database environments, including creation and editing of Connection Strings to databases and use of configured QUERYs as follows. These are explored as tools for Program Management of complex projects, in posts on Silicon Valley Project Management, and collected here for convenient viewing on this site. This website is about Power Operational Intelligence ("PowerOpI"), a use of Excel as a data source (among others) initially developed with MS Access and SQL Server, and extended to PowerQuery. In recent years, Microsoft have added PowerQuery to Excel, as well as PowerBI Desktop, with intent to make Excel-with-a-database for Business Intelligence ("BI") a self-service proposition, available to ordinary mortals. This capability has been available for years using MS Access and SQL Server. But there are more powerful ways to use Excel: connecting Excel Tables to a Database environment, to add the power of QUERYs and JOINs to combine the Tables to drive Pivot reports, Pivot charts, QUERY Tables, and PowerBI graphical elements.
Flat Excel spreadsheets, some expressed as tables, are commonly used to represent, analyze and manage business problems.
