What you'll learn

Build a Repeatable Data Pipeline

Import and clean raw accounting data using Power Query so your forecast refreshes automatically with each new file.

Create Dynamic Forecast Models

Use Excel's dynamic arrays to build flexible cash flow projections that expand and adapt as your data changes.

Eliminate Manual Rework That Wastes Time

Connect recurring data files to a live forecast so you spend minutes updating instead of hours rebuilding every cycle.

Why this topic matters

Most finance teams still update their cash flow forecasts through brute force. They copy, paste, reformat, and pray nothing breaks. It's slow, error-prone, and impossible to scale. This lesson shows you how to connect recurring data files to a live forecast using Power Query and dynamic arrays so your model refreshes itself in minutes. Less rework, fewer errors, and more time for analysis.
