How to load the data of latest date, then rename the sheet with latest data?

How to load the data of latest date, then rename the sheet with latest data?

Datasource:

My_Rebecca_0-1679360620498.png

currently I need the data of "DC TJ Inventory_20230319",

Load

******

FROM [DC TJ Inventory_*.XLSX]
(ooxml, embedded labels, table is Sheet1)
Where max(TextBetween(FileName(),'_','.') )

But this does not work. How to script this?

Then I need to rename the sheet like this, how to realize it? Many thanks.

Hi

Try like below

Table1:

Load Distinct

TextBetween(FileName(),'_','.')  as FileNameDate,

FileName() as FileName

FROM [DC TJ Inventory_*.XLSX]
(ooxml, embedded labels, table is Sheet1);

Inner join(Table1) 

Load Max(FileNameDate) as FileNameDate resident Table1;

let vMaxFileName = Peek('FileNameDate');

Load * from [DC TJ Inventory_$(vMaxFileName).XLSX]
(ooxml, embedded labels, table is Sheet1);

Use "FileName" in sheetName, it will display dynamic name.

Hope it helps

Thanks & Regards, Mayil Vahanan R

No no,

Actually, you need to declare after inventory table. 
And instead of DC TJ Inventory*.xlsx, you need to replace with below to load only the latest data

DC TJ Inventory_$(vMaxFileName).XLSX

sorry, I'm a beginner, it's a little hard for me to understand.

What does it mean "you need to declare after inventory table"? I change as you suggested, but not succeed.

Load

******

FROM [lib://FLD_DI_LOG_Reporting/Control Tower DC Report/DC TJ/Inventory/DC TJ Inventory*.XLSX]
(ooxml, embedded labels, table is Sheet1);


Table1:
Load Distinct
TextBetween(FileName(),'_','.') as "FileNameDate",
FileName() as "FileName"
FROM [lib://FLD_DI_LOG_Reporting/Control Tower DC Report/DC TJ/Inventory/DC TJ Inventory*.XLSX]
(ooxml, embedded labels, table is Sheet1);
Inner join(Table1)
Load Max("FileNameDate") as "FileNameDate" resident Table1;
let vMaxFileName = Peek('FileNameDate');
Load * from [lib://FLD_DI_LOG_Reporting/Control Tower DC Report/DC TJ/Inventory/DC TJ Inventory$(vMaxFileName).XLSX]
(ooxml, embedded labels, table is Sheet1);

Hi,

Try like below, hope it will helps to load only the latest file info

INMap1:
Mapping Load
"Sales Order"&'-'&"Sales order item",
"Posting Date"
FROM xxxxxxxxxxx;

Inventory:
Mapping Load
"Profit Center",
"BU"
FROM xxxxxxxxxxx;

 

Table1:
Load Distinct
TextBetween(FileBaseName(),'_','.') as FileNameDate,
FileName() as FileName
FROM [lib://FLD_DI_LOG_Reporting/Control Tower DC Report/DC TJ/Inventory/DC TJ Inventory_*.XLSX]
(ooxml, embedded labels, table is Sheet1);

Inner Join (Table1)
Load Max(FileNameDate) as FileNameDate Resident Table1;
let vMaxFileName=Peek('FileNameDate');

 

Drop table Table1;

Load*,
if("Posting Date"='','',Today()-"Posting Date") as "Inventory Time (day)";

Load

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

ApplyMap(xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx)

FROM [lib://FLD_DI_LOG_Reporting/Control Tower DC Report/DC TJ/Inventory/DC TJ Inventory_$(vMaxFileName).XLSX]
(ooxml, embedded labels, table is Sheet1);

dear @MayilVahanan , thanks for your patience. Please take a look at what I input here per your script.

I feel very close to success, yet last step perhaps. How to make the final correction?
