Automating Data Consolidation from Multiple Sheets to a Summary Sheet in Excel

AP Dillion

I manage several projects, each with its own Excel sheet containing detailed metrics in a consistent format across all sheets. The sheets include columns like 'Start Date,' 'End Date,' 'Budget,' and 'Progress.' I want to create a summary sheet that automatically pulls key data from each project sheet and updates it in real time as individual sheets are modified. With the number of projects increasing, manually updating the summary sheet is becoming impractical. Is there a way to automate this data consolidation process in Excel?

You can have a summary sheet in each project with the metrics you need. Create a summary report to extract from those project then export into excel.
